When trying to strip www. from link with subdomain (e.g. www.unix.stackexchange.com) it does not work, www. stays. Is this intended behavior?

Hey,

I came here to say that I find stripping the www subdomain a strange default choice. I had expected that this library would normalize the URL as much as possible but by absolutely minimizing the risk of breaking the URL. As someone who hosts websites myself, I'd say it's fairly common that there isn't a totally clean mapping between www and the apex domain. It might be kinda hard flipping that default choice, but I'd still welcome it.
