Thanks, quite right. (I realized same too late to edit my comment.)

FWIW I liked "Zeit" better than "Vercel" (shrug). But preferences aside, I was annoyed that the new redirects for "now.sh" URLs were -- uncharacteristically for a team famous for attention to detail -- mishandled, e.g. breaking a fantastic preso I'd bookmarked (which grauch used in his React Conf 2017 talks) and which I had cause to reference today in promoting NextJS with a client. It's the only real "footgun" move I've seen them make. Here's hoping it's an anomaly!

Hey chrisweekly. "deck.now.sh" we chose to redirect because it had some very so slightly out-of-date information. Thanks for calling this out. The right thing here would be to add a banner to the presentation instead, giving an option to go visit the documentation or newer presentations.
