Two passages described Firebase Dynamic Links as "shutting down". It shut down on 25 August 2025 — over a year ago.

README.md:219 already says so correctly, so the file contradicted itself about a hundred lines apart. One of the two wrong passages was added in #24, so this is cleanup of my own error.

Past tense is also the stronger argument. "Every link it had ever minted stopped resolving" is a concrete outcome people are still dealing with; "is shutting down" reads as a warning about something that hasn't happened yet, and dates the project to before it did — a bad look right as the repo goes public.

README.md:219 already states FDL shut down completely on 25 August 2025,
but two passages written later described it as "shutting down" — including
one added in the same commit, so the file contradicted itself a hundred
lines apart.

Past tense is also the stronger argument: "every link it had ever minted
stopped resolving" is the concrete outcome people are still dealing with,
where the progressive tense reads like a warning about something that
hasn't happened yet and dates the project to before it did.
