It's Omni's new URL shortener which currently doesn't have an SSL certificate. That is the reason why your browser is blocking it. I don't use chrome but if I am remembering correctly, on that screen click details and there should be an option to continue to the website
He should add LetsEncrypt to prevent this (Aug 26, 2019 09:19 AM)BTC Wrote: It's Omni's new URL shortener which currently doesn't have an SSL certificate.

On the topic of the URL shortner, why did it even get added? I may have missed a thread but I can't understand why it would need to be a thing.

Just remove the link shortner.... ![]() |
