I’m having the same issue on Android. For me, switching to desktop mode to load the Anubis check then back to mobile mode so the website is usable again worked.
Websites are getting hammered by AI bots stealing content and jacking up their bandwidth usage. So they use a piece of software called Anubis which, for some reason, has a cartoon nurse that will grant or deny you access based on if she thinks you are human or AI. For some reason, she thinks I am AI so I can’t access the article.
Weird, the cartoon doesn’t want to let me through. Something about an iPhone running lemmy pisses off anubus.

That cartoon is so misleading, I thought I was deceived and sent to a bogus site.
Lots of sites use her now
