Why is cat box acting so weird lately?

I keep getting network issues.

Weird how? A bunch of people lately have had similar complaints that amount to a DNS provider blocking the site. I wish they would say who their ISP is, because it seems to be a big one if so many people are hit. Somebody also mentioned mobile was a particular problem.

If it's DNS, then you need to use an alternative DNS provider. Cloudflare DNS is free and popular, and since they serve so much traffic anyways, I guess there's a limited impact to privacy.

Alternatively, use a VPN.

I used cloudflare on my tmobile phone but doing that makes archive.today domains not resolve. It's all big tech censorship from the sjws

Cloudflare DNS not working with archive.today is a self-own by archive: https://www.upgoat.net/viewpost?postid=6552183422815

"It appears archive.today doesn't like Cloudflare DNS because Cloudflare doesn't allow archive.today to geolocate users. So maybe solving a captcha is a compromise, but then it's just an infinite loop of captcha. That's shit."

I mainly use my phone since it’s easier access

I don't think it's DNS. My connections to them resolve, but the data is super-slow/unreliable.

I should clarify: archive.is occasionally blocks me, and I have no idea how, and using a VPN gets around. catbox is unreliable, but it's not clear there's any kind of blocking going on.

Cats are unpredictable

Maybe it's full and you gotta scoop some of those nuggets out...
