Hovering doesn't work. They intercept the click, run a snippet of javascript that changes the link, return "true" to allow the link click to proceed, and then change the link back immediately afterward. You won't ever see the hover text change from the fake link text. You will only see the go.bsky.app URL in your address bar briefly in the new tab.

Strangely, my setup seems to bypass this, without ever sending a request to go.bsky.app. I have ublock origin and all the Firefox tracking protection enabled, so it might automatically replace these redirect links with the resulting link (the URL is URL-encoded in the redirect URL as a parameter).
