Does archive.today break when using private DNS (quad9)? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Today, I enabled quad9 dns for my home network, and archive.today now requires a captcha, which results in an infinite loop.

A similar problem was reported some months ago for Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1

Posting here to see whether it's just me or everyone. Is this a know problem?

Both should work, archive.today is using a dns-based load balancer where it answer DNS query with an IP address for a server that supposedly closer to you. Just pick one with the shortest ping and see if it'll work.

But, then, why does it not work when using quad9? The result from quad9 may not be the closest server, but they can serve the captcha, so I'm reaching one of their servers.
