How the hell does it prevent spam? Spammers just bake bit.ly links into the image which I doubt have a much lower hit rate than usual spam. Meanwhile, every time I find a new account I like and want to see what they're all about, I have to use a search engine because all of their posts just say "link in bio" for the context and additional content, but their bio link has long since changed. This is a clear dark pattern to keep people in their walled garden and I really can't see any other explanation. (they do allow links for ads though, which are usually just spam anyways, so that reinforces this even further)
