#killedbygoogle

Google's URL shortening service goo.gl links will stop working on August 25th, 2025, resulting in 404 errors.
Starting August 23rd, 2024, goo.gl links will show an interstitial page warning users of the upcoming shutdown.
Google initially suggested migrating to Firebase Dynamic Links (FDL), which has also since been deprecated.

Wait, people outside Google were allowed to use it? Huh, I don't think I've ever seen that in the wild.

Initially everybody could use them, then they just closed the service but the links kept working.
