alt Hacker NewsOMG. Thank you! I had to setup a CDN-level redirect and I was so confused as to why when I asked others to help, their submissions were flagged as [dupe] or [dead]
Thank you so much! I knew that HN software was advanced, but I didn’t know you guys used Canonical URLs like Google does. Smart and thanks for helping us with this slip!!!
Oh you're welcome - it does lead to a lot of not-obvious problems like this but I think it's worth it overall. It helps with duplicate detection, merging threads, and so on.
