These links never work for me because I use Cloudflare VPN (and even just Cloudflare DNS is enough to cause the problem). They don't work because Cloudflare preserves the user's privacy by not sending the originating subnet in eDNS requests to the upstream resolver. [0]

This archive network is also run by an unknown actor with unknown motives but a demonstrated willingness to pay the high infrastructure costs. And this actor refuses to resolve DNS requests unless they include the subnet of the originating IP.

I'm not against posting them, but I wish there were a better option.
