"taking too long to respond' means a (transient) network problem, site down etc.
Works at present for me

Working fine here too from my location.
As stated usually "taking too long to respond" indicates a website or networking problem

Sites with their associated links work for me as well. Even surfed both of them for awhile.

At the time of this posting, I am using 64 bit linux Pale Moon (GTK2) 34.0.1 running in 64 bit MX Linux 25.1 (Infinity) Xfce. With uBlock Origin 1.16.6.1 enabled for both sites.
