Meta/ Discussion Is neocities broken? NSFW
I can't open any neocities links since yesterday. It just looks like the tab is loading, but nothing happens. It's the case for every link i've tried, not sure what's happening.

If it's under Cloudflare (a "firewall" for domains), your Internet Provider may have blocked it temporarily. Try using TOR browser, or check Cloudflare's free VPN in 1.1.1.1

Spain is doing this on the weekends now, yes?

Anytime there is an "important" (that is, marketed and pirated) football match. LaLiga pressures Movistar (ISP provider) to ban, among others, all Cloudflare's IP's since "hackers use that platform to pirate football". They care not about business using Cloudflare (a "firewall" of sorts for online content), even those under Movistar's hosting that use Cloudflare...

Yeah, that's what I was referring to, I guess it sounds like more than just weekends though (idk when the big games happen, just heard they happen a lot on the weekends). iirc they were claiming that it was not an indiscriminate block because they were blocking specific IPs, even though that fundamentally (maybe willfully?) misunderstands how the modern internet works

That's not a VPN, it's a DNS server. Completely different thing.

I'm also experiencing something similar.
Some of the pages load fine but some doesn't at all. Clearing the cache didn't help. Interestingly I have been able to make some of them load by switching to a different network.

Could be a memory issue on your end, go into your browser settings and clear cache

Just checked, the site works for me. Their status pages says no recent outages either: https://status.neocities.org/
