A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

Is it me, or are these links not going anywhere?

Works fine on my end. I checked just now. msn.com site

It just redirects to msn.com tho. It's not linking to any specific article despite being a link to a specific article from the posted URL.

[–] TheSilentNickel@feddit.org 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

it shows the whole article for me. Maybe you have an adblocker that is disabling it or something?

That was my first thought; but it still redirects when I turn off uBlock and my paywall bypasser.

Worked fine in Chrome tho. Might be the browser identifier.

That was it. I changed my user agent to Chrome and it stopped redirecting.

It works for me!

Interesting article, I love weird things like this.

Interesting that someone was able to swap all the models like that. Fixed my access with a tip from someone else.
