- seedless-sensat 4y agoI have found Chrome more willing to resolve go/foo as a web search. As a result, the Google autocomplete suggestions for terms like "go/m" are pretty amusing
- rnestler 4y agoInterestingly there are also several go/foo autocompletions on Duckduckgo :)
- rwiggins 4y agoI can’t speak for anywhere else, but I’m pretty sure Google uses a Proxy Auto Config script for go links, which should prevent that from happening in most cases. Disclosure: I work for Google.
