I realize it's only fediverse adjacent, but recently I've been unable to access catbox links. It seems like a prefered platform for the fediverse and it just seems to have disappeared.

Seems like it's just you.

Tested with two different services and it's up. I also accessed the site and it's working fine.

So does the content in this link work for you?

here is a direct link:

Because I'm getting a response as if it doesn't exist at all. But earlier Saturday it worked fine.

Wow. This is a bit wild, so I'm going to add context.

I've been sharing the link with friends and suddenly, all of catbox went dark for us. On different phones too.

So multiple people have confirmed they can't reach it.

Potentially an ISP/cell level block?

Yes, that would seem like an ISP, DNS, or some other block. Try changing the DNS on your devices to p0.freedns.controld.com or something similar and test again.

Edit: Changed to a DNS server with no ad or other blocking.
