I’m having the same problem. Just noticed it today. Since I haven’t changed anything on my computer, I have to suspect it’s something on Blizzard’s end.

Running into same issue.
Glad to hear this is recent. Maybe it’ll be fixed soon.
This has been happening to me too for about a week. It happens on both my phone and computer, whether I’m logged into my account or not. I hope it gets fixed soon.
Yeah this has been happening to me as well. Really quite frustrating. Tried opening links on phone through google, copy pasting, typing it out in pc browser, and have only gotten to the homepage.
Still happening. Seems like when I click a link it’s battle(dot)net but when I load the page , it changes to forums(dot)blizzard(dot)com and just brings me to the homepage.

Still an incredibly annoying issue months later. It seems like they changed forum post URLs and old ones just go to the main page and you have to manually find threads now. Even links to older posts in blue trackers on big sites like MMO champ do not work anymore.
They physically removed the old forums that preceded this one about a year after this version went live.
Links to the old forums are still found around the internet and clicking them gets you redirected to the new forum home page instead of to a 404 page,

I thought some of them were links to still existing posts since they were from BfA and sometimes you even have links to them in other posts in these forums and they have accurate previews to the post, but then clicking on them just goes to the main page.
I guess the BfA posts were early BfA and the new forums went live a few months later though so they were actually old forum posts.
the old forums were retained for a year or a bit more when this version was released. The intention was that they still had some relative content but now that content is, at best, a couple of years out of date.
