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.

How so? I can get bit.ly being blocked in general as it's commonly known but emol.ink for example is not. For all an unsuspecting reader knows that (emol.ink) could be an alternative to emojipedia.
Can any URL shortener be detected by Automod automatically with technical means, by checking for permanent redirects e.g.?
Or is some poor fella forced to maintain a static list of know URL shorteners the Automod uses? :D
I'm not saying Reddit knows about emol.ink, I've certainly never heard of it. But if Reddit admins realize that it is a URL shortener, they will throw it on the blocked domains list too.
