Have you ever wanted to rickroll your boss but found that links like

https://goo.gl/ejKmN3, https://bit.ly/LEcVV7 and (_ekhm_) https://youtu.be/I6OXjnBIW-4

were _a bit_ too obvious? Well, I did. A couple of times, actually.

So I made this. And now you can trick your boss too. You're welcome.

## Domains

Domains are meant to be interchangeable (with each redirect working on all currently

linked domains) and temporary (renewing a domain is usually much more expensive

than registering it).

Currently linked domains:

- https://mortifex.xyz/

- https://notarickroll.lol/

If you'd like to 'donate' a domain, [let me know][github new issue]! It's as easy

as pointing the DNS record at `fakester.pawelad.me` and enabling it on the backend.

## Malicious redirects

Please [open an issue][github new issue] if you found a redirect that was malicious,

as I realize that this can possibly be used in such way. It's the opposite of my

intentions and I try to prevent that in a couple of ways but (unfortunately) nothing

is perfect.
