I noticed I couldn't connect to archive.is, eventually I figured out it was an issue with cloudflare DNS, 1.1.1.1. Checking nslookup confirms this:

nslookup archive.is 1.1.1.1 Server: 1.1.1.1 Address: 1.1.1.1#53

Non-authoritative answer: Name: archive.is Address: 127.0.0.4

nslookup archive.is 8.8.8.8 Server: 8.8.8.8 Address: 8.8.8.8#53

Non-authoritative answer: Name: archive.is Address: 94.16.117.236

Cloudflare is returning a localhost address which prevents you from accessing the website.
