Been going on since maybe two weeks for me. Top level domain doesn't seem to matter. .is .vn, whatever same result.

Am I the only one on here?

Makes a good portion of Poal unusable, so please guys, post not only the archive link but also the original one.

Whatever the archive link is (archive.is/xxxxx). Change it to (archive.today/xxxxx). It will automatically redirect you to the best server. If you are still having problems using the .today domain then the site is having problems.

Maybe you overlooked it in the OP, TLD doesn't seem to matter.

You mentioned TLDs such as is,ph,md... There are quite a few. .today will redirect to the best (working) server. Did you try the .today link I posted?

Thanks but no, it didn't. Went through many captchas. If I ever have to see stairs, buses, bicycles, motorbikes again, it'll be too soon. :)

I mentioned the .today TLD in the post subject.

No, it's been acting up a lot lately. I can't even get to page at some points.

They broke their sites on older web browsers recently as well. Hopefully there are alternatives.

Looks like people with the captcha loop are getting 429 Too Many Requests. Maybe there's some throttling/DDoS mitigation going on for Eurofags only.

Have you tried to purge your cache? (f12, network tab, tick "disable cache", reload page and close the dev tools)

Maybe you're running an old version of the captcha script

Just tried that, thanks for the tip. Alas, no dice.

Good to know that not all IP address ranges in Yurop have this problem. Thanks!

Good to know that it's not a universal problem. Thought as much or it would have been noticed earlier. (Your link also puts me into captcha hell)

Oh well, can't be arsed to go down that rabbit hole (again) for now. Maybe later.
