This is one of the shadiest looking links I’ve ever seen. No way am I clicking that.
The actual url is https://šime.eu/3
It’s called Punycode.
Exactly, in some contexts it is displayed like this to mitigate homograph attacks, where someone creates similar looking URLs for phishing purposes. Nothing shady about Punycode by itself, but it’s good to be aware of homograph attacks. Internationalized domain names (IDNs) are cool :)
@NewPerspective @neop I just read it and it isn’t shady. It’s just not some fancy site owned by some media company.
The only thing I think he missed was the excellent reader view that I have never seen done as well anywhere else.
It’s just a website. Actually a decent looking one too.
If someone wanted you to click that link with bad intentions, pretty sure they would have a normal domain name. :)
Yeah, still not clicking it
This is what it redirects to if it seems safer: https://šime.eu/3
It does not
Not sure what’s your point at this point. If you’re that worried you could’ve used the wayback machine or disabled JavaScript on your browser sense the website is functioning without them anyways.
Just ignore him he just wants to be annoying
