URL shorteners are generally blocked and for good reason.

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

Will emol.ink work? :D

but man, whatever happened to editorial review?

It actually does in my experience and you don’t even have to actively be the one with that attitude.

I know (knew) someone like that and it honestly is exhausting. Even worse it also sucks the energy of anyone around and spreads like a dissease until either the whole community’s sick or the host isolated.
