I've given up on the archives as they don't work anymore. I wish people could post the original links as well.

I get that sometimes as well. It seems to be broken on their end.

I get this too, and appreciate it when posters provide original links

I opened one in edge the other day just to see opened just fine no verification at all. Starting to think its firefox or ublock in my case. I have also complained about this in posts too

Are you clicking archive.ph/ links or archive.today/ links that send you to archive.ph/ links - that force you into the verification doom loop?

I don't think I've encountered that, or if I have it was long ago.

Sometimes its your plugins or extensions for your browser. Try another or a private/incognito window without browsers.

I also get this issue, I can no longer open archive links.

Oh yeah it means they identified a nazi. That's actually what its entire purpose is.
