    The Perchance site itself doesn’t block people¹, so it’s likely some sort of network issue. It could be something to do with the network you’re using, or with Cloudflare, or with a network-level firewall, or some combination. Questions:

    1. What error message does it show? Can you screenshot it?
    2. Are you using an unusual/uncommon web browser? The fact that you’ve tested ipad and pc makes me think no.
    3. Do you have another network/connection that you can test with? E.g. hotspot on phone? To see if your computer/ipad loads it fine on a different connection.
    4. This shouldn’t be relevant anyway, but out of curiosity, if you visit https://ip-api.com/ and scroll down to the mobile and proxy and hosting values, do they say true or false?
    5. Is the network a school/workplace/university/etc.? Some schools have block-lists for game/entertainment related websites, and it’s possible perchance has been blocked by that.

    ¹ Note: You can get blocked from e.g. participating in comments sections (and VPNs are blocked from commenting by default due to spam and block-evasion), but you can never be blocked from simply viewing/using a generator.
