You all get it totally wrong, it's not part of enshittification, they add the landingpage so you can securely check where tue link is going...

And if there's a landing page, why not use it to show you great deals...would be sad to not use that real estate

That's \s by the way

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
