Recently, I've had mixed success with archive.* (except archive.org)
For a while I was getting not only the checkbox, but lots of "eye test" captchas which I hate, hate, hate.

Today, only the checkbox. I use phone, ipad, computer, icloud private relay or not, and riseup vpn at times.

(redacted) archive sites were telling me yesterday "too many downloads for this IP address" no matter which IP I had, including "bare" from the ISP. No proxy at all.
