I've found out, that one game from the website is in Roskomnadzor blocklist

https://greenky-man.itch.io/manya-lovit-vanyu  

It can be checked in https://blocklist.rkn.gov.ru

interesting find, thanks for the report

I've long observed this as their (rkn) standart practive for HTTPS sites: one link is enough to block entire site because "we don't know what page exactly is being requested" (not citation).

As you can see in this independent registry, that game page was blocked back in 2022. May that be that before itch.io update a few days ago they've been able to look though https and block that particular page only and now that it's no longer possible it falls back to blocking the entire website?

The website doesn't open despite what looks like a mostly succesfull tracert. I use 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 for dns on this pc.

Correction: they must be blocking greenky-man.itch.io subdomain which should be possible I guess unlike blocking a particular page under http?

The symptoms (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED instead of ERR_TIMED_OUT) aren't like any other website blockage on my particular ISP as far as I've seen.

It's one game, not full site. It was in blocklist for a long time and there were no problems with other games.
