Hoppscotch automatically follows redirects, hence 301 Moved Permanently will fetch redirected URL and show its response which might result in 404 Not Found if that resource is not found.

Since this is an expected behavior, I'll close this issue ticket.

To track progress on automatically following redirects check #2095.
