LED lights are meant to save energy. They’re creating glaring problems

It’s just a shortened link, probably copied it for mobile.
But what’s the point of shortening it? I want to see the source before clicking on a link.
He likely wasn’t responsible for shortening it, Washington post did it automatically when sharing the article. Everything does this nowadays Google maps adds trackers to the url when sharing as well. I agree it’s annoying but not many good ways around it.
That makes sense. Thanks!
especially on mobile. On desktop, where you have a keyboard and mouse, and even tools like browser extensions or whatever it’s definitely easier.
It’s a “gift article” to get past paywall: …washingtonpost.com/…/4403823008539-How-to-use-gi…
I’ve tried the direct link and it is not behind he paywall.
it says the gift article is expired for some reason

Try this: wapo.st/3pUUnJu

I’ll edit the link for the post. Sorry, didn’t realize these type of gift links expire after 14 days.
