It's not for bsky to log clicks...????? They can already do that without doing this bounce link because you're using their app??????? Like folks are we really doing this?

It's for external websites to know that the click came from bsky. (E.g. if you click the link from the bsky app, without this trick it would like you just typed the URL in, since apps don't provide a referral header)
