1, not 2 names for 1 and the same abstraction

window.location calls it reload so util/helpers shouldn't call it
redirect because UI/util/UIUtil has it is own redirect which is the
assign of window.location.

modules/URL/ConferenceUrl.js

 const logger = require("jitsi-meet-logger").getLogger(__filename);
 
-import { redirect } from '../util/helpers';
+import { replace } from '../util/helpers';
 
 /**
  * The modules stores information about the URL used to start the conference and
      */
     reload() {
         logger.info("Reloading the conference using URL: " + this.originalURL);
-        redirect(this.originalURL);
+        replace(this.originalURL);
     }
 }

modules/util/helpers.js

 }
 
 /**

+ * history).
+ *
  * @param {string} url the URL pointing to the location where the user should

     window.location.replace(url);
