I've asked this to fiatjaf in the past and the response was that redirect is a cancer and it's not supported by spec. (Paraphrasing ) But some clients might follow the redirection.

Depends on your application server. You might need to nginx proxy, or if it's a little more complex you might need a script to do the lookup.

301/302 redirects are quite standards web server behaviours, but you will have to do a lookup initially to know where to redirect to.

So some application coding might be needed.

Thank you, that sounds like what I think I'm trying to do. Can you point me in the right direction for where I can learn more about this? Thank you.

Lightning Address Question - how to redirect?

Proxy the request to the destination LN address?

Or try 301/302 redirect. No idea if the spec or clients support redirects.
