Is there a urldecode?

A better method is CGI.unescape:
URI.unescape is deprecated

decoded_uri = CGI.unescape(encoded_uri)

Via decode:

require 'uri'
URI.decode(encoded_uri)

Ruby 2.7 and above:

require 'uri'
URI.decode_www_form_component(encoded_uri)

The equivalent of PHP's urldecode in Ruby is CGI::unescape.

Well the thing with =3f and =3d is quoted-printable encoding. Ruby can decode it with the .unpack("M") method.

The backslashes? They're just weird and wrong. It would probably be safe to string-replace them to / since backslash should not be in a URL to begin with.
