Thank you for posting the source, as catbox does not work for many people.

Oh I'm glad it's not just me. Any idea why it doesn't work?

This is their FAQ about connectivity, I almost simply linked the page, but realized if you can't access it, you can't see the FAQ. https://catbox.moe/faq.php

I just assume it's overwhelmed at times, since the majority of the time Catbox does not work for me is around "prime time." Which in this case, tends to be around 2-3am (for me) when it's mid-morning for a lot of the non-US based users.

This is a good point but my issue isn't DNS or ISP-wide hijacking. I can query my DNS server and get an IP for catbox.moe but I cannot interact with that IP. No pings, nothing. Something between me and them is blocking this connection. It's not my and it's not my ISP. Catbox says it isn't them.

One of the more popular pihole block lists has it under spam, I had to whitelist it.

I haven't a clue. I emailed them from a network admin perspective and all they gave me was "We're not blocking you".
