kinda glad url shorteners have fallen out of favour these days but it sucks how long they were popular and how much everyone used them
RE: social.kernel.org/objects/3912…
Ah joy ... Google is turning off its URL shortener and breaking every link that ever used it:
developers.googleblog.com/en/g…
A quick search on lore.kernel.org:
lore.kernel.org/all/?q=goo.gl%…
...turns up about 19,000 messages with affected links. That's a lot of history that is going to become harder (or impossible) to find.
Google URL Shortener links will no longer be available
Understand how you will be impacted by our decision to turn off the serving portion of Google URL Shortener.developers.googleblog.com

Thank you. This was what I was looking for.
Is almost certainly already aware of this, but tagging him here just in case.
[Edit] never mind. He already chimed in down thread.

Archive.org is up for helping...
The original URL shorteners thought about this, and archived their links with archive.org .
archive.org/details/301works?t…
I hope google joins now, and gives us the host domain so we can make them continue to work (redirect into the wayback machine that would archive the redirect).
please.
