MODERATORS
The best part is that if you inspect elements, it still shows as the original link. They only generate the go link after you clicked.
That is so... gross!!! Ugh. Yuck!
Gross, or brilliant?
Depends on where you fall on the sociopathy spectrum.
The former lol. I'm a software dev and I'm ashamed at how we keep making the internet worse by just doing whatever the money tells us to do. It's even worse when we "innovate" for them in this way.
That's how Google always worked, btw. But there is one obvious benefit to showing the original URL before you click it, you can hover it to see where the link actually leads before they hijack the click.
Not always, but for quite a while now
that’s also for accessibility, etc so i wouldn’t pin it all on being malicious
