    On my phone it usually works, so long as I have Private DNS settings off, even through my home network using my router’s DNS settings. If I turn on the Private DNS on my phone it won’t load.

    On my PC’s it’s blocked every time at home. This is using my router’s DNS, I don’t have it configured locally, so if I hop onto a WiFi with standard DNS it should work.

    When I looked into it before I found a reddit post that mentioned it was because they actively sabotage DNS queries from Cloudflare and Quad9. Someone made a workaround but I CBA doing that, I prefer his middle finger solution (advocating for archive.org instead). https://old.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/118haqg/archiveph_webpage_archive_as_site_is/

        Archive.org is the OG, run by Internet Archives. However the downside is that you can’t just make up a link - with archive.is you can just append the URL you want and it will work (eventually, once it’s actually done its archiving) but with archive.org you have to actually go to the site and paste the URL, then you’ll see all the snapshots it has and each link has the date and time of the snapshot.

        If archive.org could do something to make it easier to make links that would be perfect.
