Description
I'm receiving the below error when I run the following command (#309).
iwr https://iroh.computer/sendme.ps1 -useb | iex
The command was copied directly from the iroh.computer homepage and pasted in the terminal. This was tested on two individual machines in different countries just to be sure.
iwr : The remote server returned an error: (308) Permanent Redirect.

I downloaded the script and tested it on my GitHub Pages site and it works without any issues.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue from the iroh.computer homepage by running the reported PowerShell command, then compare its redirect behavior with the working GitHub Pages URL. Trace the homepage's /sendme.ps1 link and its 308 response; done means the documented command executes successfully without requiring a manual download.
