Can't archive links on archive.ph and others (piefed.social)

Hey,
so I've been noticing for a while that when I try to archive a link on these sites, I get the all-clear for the main page, js and images. And then it starts again from the start, scraping the stuff in an endless loop.

Thought it might have something to do with VPN, but even without it doesn't seem to work.

Here's an example I try to archive:

Any ideas? Thank you!

Any ideas?

The first go-to when a website seems broken on a given system is probably disabling browser extensions. Have you tried that?
