Redirects from Facebook are not working properly. I always get following error if click on the redirected link.

Could you please provide a bit more insights:

  • What url did you enter into unshort.link
  • What url did you get redirected to
  • Where did you expect to be redirected?

I am using Firefox Plugin. Whenever I click some external link on any Facebook post, it is unable to resolve it and if I click on the resolved URL provided by unshort, it gives me an error.

Here is an example, if you put the following link in your service, it will provide me some version of this link. If you click on that, it will give you the error. However, if you use that url directly without unshort, I go to correct redirected destination. This happens to almost all Facebook third party links.

Here is the links. Try using it in unshort as well as without it.
