Hello. Today I wanted to try Trisquel GNU/Linux but I couldn't access it's site. I had to download the iso from distrowatch's archive. I can access to the domain via VPN but I don't get it why would they block a domain of a GNU/Linux distribution.

Also, I guess my CPU (AMD Ryzen 4300GE) needs non-free driver to function properly because my resolution is stuck at 1024x768*76hz and i don't see any other resolution options.

Apparently many websites are blocked in Turkey.

It probably would be hard to get to without VPN, but this is the link to download from Turkey. Does it work, I wonder.

https://ftp.linux.org.tr/trisquel/iso//trisquel_11.0_amd64.iso

Trisquel is also blocked within some ISPs in Iran (Unfortunately mine too!). I usually access it with choosing another ISP or another Trisquel mirror (namely mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/trisquel-packages). Strange fact is, I can access Trisquel repos on a live system, but not on an installed one!

That makes me wonder if you have access to Uruk's website from Turkey.
