This is how you reproduce this bug: have an internet outage (ou just disconnect from the internet for a second); click on a freepost link from your RSS feed; naturally the page won't load; have internet on again; F5; see the link get redirected to something like https://freepo.st/post.php?hash_id=tdleefbpzh/tdleefbpzh which gives a 404.

Did that make any sense?

I need to track down while this is happening. The URL which you've clicked most certainly is

https://freepo.st/post/tdleefbpzh

The URL you've posted, https://freepo.st/post.php?hash_id=tdleefbpzh/tdleefbpzh, is the same URL as above that has been rewritten by the webserver (post.php is the page rendering the post content). This should be transparent. In fact, if you replace your URL with https://freepo.st/post.php?hash_id=tdleefbpzh this works as expected.

I'm not sure where this URL is coming from, and why there's an extra /tdleefbpzh. Thanks for reporting.

Can you please check this again? I think it might be fixed now, but I'm not sure. It's incredibly difficult to reproduce. I've been only able to see this error once, but now it seems to work correctly every time.

Thanks! As this is also hard for me to reproduce, I'll keep an eye out for the fix. In the meantime, I'm closing this as fix.
