Tell HN: t.co is adding a five-second delay to some domains
I can confirm. NYT shows a five-second redirect delay: "wget <a href="https://t.co/4fs609qwWt" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://t.co/4fs609qwWt</a>". It redirects to gov.uk immediately: "wget  <a href="https://t.co/iigzas6QBx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://t.co/iigzas6QBx</a>"
