Why the content warning for a hackernews website though?


That’s the same warning you get for any elongated URL


Yeah, I understand _why_ they provide the warning before forwarding you through to any URL, but at the same time this extra click (or "warning") for users puts this service squarely in the category of joke services rather than actually-usable services (even as a joke service).

Love it as a piece of art/commentary, though.


Yeah, tend to agree with you. I think they want you to land on their site so they can publicize their joke service.
