Is it just me, or is the site breaking all links to Amazon and Home depot?

Broken Amazon and Home depot links

That Amazon link works for me.
I do know Ryan has had an issue in the past with some members referring stuff to Amazon with links, it goes to profit that member. A few have been banned in the past for exploiting this profiteering off the back of Ryan's forum. The few bucks that Ryan collects from referrals help run the site for us to use.

Weird, it works for me now too.
Sometimes I see links go through some affiliate server, and then it lands me on a random item or the home page.
I figured it was Ryan's service, bit playing nice with an update somewhere. I'll try to pay attention to the address next time.
This is still an issue.
I've noticed that the 1st click goes through 1-3 redirect before it lands at HD or Amazons random page. If I go bag and click again, it sends me direct to the proper page.
Today I saw 2 posts where other users commented on "broken links". The first was amazon, went through 2 redirect s and behaved as I described above.
Just now I saw a HD link quoted as bad, but it worked for me ( a few hrs after the bad amazon link).
Is Ryan having issues with viglink and cookies?

I was unaware of this. Working on it now.
Edit.
Odd, don't think it's on my end
Are the links above working?
What browser are you using?

The HD link goes right through.
Amazon link seems to be redirected https://go.lnk1a9.com/link/r?campai...5&pd_rd_w=OsgNQ&pd_rd_wg=OmMGz&ref_=pd_gw_unk
This isn't the redirect I see when there are issues.

Google is trying to take the affiliate I think. Bastards. I’ll research.

Ryan I sometimes see that same type of link that PC is seeing when I post in the Amazon deals thread. If you figure it out there is some fix or work around please post as I don't want to feed Google but want to make sure that the GJ site is getting the referral.
Both are working for me and see the Atomic referral in the Amazon link
