As someone who ran a popular link shortening platform let me tell you how difficult it is to curtail spam links.
This is likely a way to warn users before being forwarded to fraudulent websites that a link has been marked as spam.
There are many other use cases for this redirect as well but this is the most obvious for user safety.
Doesn't sound plausible to me—If they can detect spam links like you're suggesting, why not just mask those links as bsky short links?

Bluesky has been doing enshitification since it didn’t mind having that transphobic man on their platform, as far as I’m concerned.
which one?
Jesse Singal. The other person that replied reminded me. When I left his being allowed to be on the platform was a bit of thing.
Guessing we're talking about Jesse Singal. The man who was banned and then allowed back in after negotiating directly with bsky staff.
That’s the one. It’s a while back I left now.
fuck it's almost like the world runs on capitalism
Isn't that what honey did in their app?
It's a switcheroo, but not the same switcheroo

This is not enshittification. Many other knowledgeable users who actually know what they're talking about have explained why.
Funny how people keep saying it's not enshittification right up until the point where they choke to death on shit.
