Pagespeed Insights - URL Diff shown on redirect very confusing

Open dwsmart opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug If you test a URL that redirects in pagespeed insights, you get a "Showing results for URL: " that's not user friendly, due to it showing a diff style output

To Reproduce

  1. Go to https://pagespeed.web.dev/report?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftamethebots.com%2Fheadless%2F
  2. See the output of the "Showing results for URL" section. There's no explanation that the blue is added characters, red is removed characters, so it looks like it redirected to: https://tamethebots.com/tools/fetch-reandless/r not https://tamethebots.com/tools/fetch-render

Expected behavior Give the URL you tested is in the URL bar just above, it would be much clearer to just output the final URL here, like it used to. At the very least, explain the diff output though. Screenshots image
