I meant that I DID get it. Looked DU up on Google rather than using the usual bookmark, and was OK. JHB Jul 2020 #8

I get the Wikipedia article, Facebook, and others, but not the actual site.

Hmmm.

Whatever you're experiencing, it's not universal.

I didn't have a problem finding it on Google (it was the first thing that came up), so whatever the issue is, it isn't affecting things Google-wide. Whatever the issue is, it's something more specific.

It came up ok for me on a Google search when using my Windows desktop and Firefox. I just tried Google app on my phone (Apple), and got what you're describing: things mentioning the site but not the site itself. However, searching on on my phone using Safari with my preferred search engine (DuckDuckGo), it came up fine there.
