TLDR: Cloudflare is probably filtering searches. Put a space before your search and it should work

$ ping -c 1 e621.net 
PING e621.net (104.26.4.231) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 104.26.4.231 (104.26.4.231): icmp_seq=1 ttl=48 time=148 ms

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 147.819/147.819/147.819/0.000 ms
$ elinks 104.26.4.231

Still can not access e621 by IP address.

Yeah it's Cloudflare which e6 cannot get around their stupidity without doing something drastic. Adding a space before the word currently works though

You're not meant to be able to. The whole point of using Cloudflare is to stop DDoS attacks, so if you could access the IP directly it'd completely remove the DDoS protection.

The IP returns:

Error 1003
Direct IP access not allowed
