Yeah it, does but from there it tells you to "open in app" but i havent had any google shit on my phone for years. And its not using the standardized geo format so it wont open in other map apps.

Dark pattern - hit open, hit cancel if you do have GMaps installed, then redirects to the web version.

The shorter URL is ~~easier to track users with~~ shorter for UX reasons.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
