lemmygrad.ml is working fine, hexbear.net and lemmy.ml are partially blocked. Side note: prolewiki.org is also partially blocked.
When I say partially blocked, it means that the IP addresses aren't blocked, so I can still connect to them without a VPN by doing some HTTP trickery with a custom Firefox extension. Fully blocked means the IP addresses are blocked so you must use proxies like VPN/IPFS/Tor to connect.
In other news, here's a list of US government sites (and one IBM subdomain) I encountered that blocks Chinese IPs:
Which is this http trickery that you are taking about?
