Does a 500ms link delay actually kill your conversion rates?

Hi hunters! 🚀

I've been obsessing over "Link Latency" lately while building BlinkURLs. We found that many legacy shorteners add up to 1 second of "white screen" time before the user even hits your landing page.

In your experience, have you noticed link speed impacting your marketing ROI? And would you trust an AI (like Gemini 2.0) to analyze your link telemetry and give you strategy advice?

I'm curious to hear how you all handle link tracking and if speed is even on your radar!
