I liked “like magic it is unlocked” better ;)
they messed up by blocking icloud relay in an ill guided vpn spam prevention implementation, archive.is useless
And yet when I click the link, I can read the article.

That was a DNS problem with cloudflare.

It bit Mozilla users harder because Mozilla uses "DNS over HTTPS" to cloudflare itself, ignoring your system DNS. There's a setting to change that but you have to enter "DNS" in the "setting search" to get it.

I too can click the link and read the article. It’s only useless if I close my eyes.
