Asking if other lemmy.ml users are facing similar issues? it seems domains registered on freenom (.ml/.tk) are not being resolved with Google DNS. It works fine on other DNS (Cloudflare/Quad9/etc)
NSLOOKUP results:
I randomly can’t browse lemmy.ml. I thought it was because of VPN, but it doesn’t seem so
Great… I use a Pixel and now I can’t browse lemmy.ml on it and as far as I know I can’t change the DNS server.
Depending on the Android version you have you can specify your own DNS-over-TLS hostname in the Private DNS settings.
I’ve tried as well using the Google Public DNS there. Also timed out for me on both 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

You are not the only one, see here.
Google has a troubleshooting website, see here, however in this case the nameserver owners needs to fix that. I would contact Google via Forum, ask them and then forward via CC it to the owner or link it to him. There is less you can do, a workaround is to use an alternative DNS.
For posterity… the dnschecker site you linked to currently shows
lemmy.ml
resolving fine on all servers they checked, except for two: Google, and “Global-Gateway Internet” in NZYop. 2 issues.
I don’t personally use Google DNS, was using a google cloud instance and couldn’t resolve some .ml domains. Then I tried lemmy and it didn’t work as well.
I assume it’s a problem with the domain registrar (freenom). they aren’t the best at handling domains properly.
But since a lot of people use Google DNS, it might mean lemmy.ml will not work for them at the moment.
