I'm getting an unresolved IP from this. :(

Assuming archive.vn is the new archive.is (and it seems so), they are returning intentionally bad IPs back to cloudflare DNS users, so if you're using 1.1.1.1 or one of their other resolvers, that's why. See earlier discussion here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19828317

One potential workaround is to manually add an entry to your /etc/hosts.

No idea how stable their IP's are, but at the moment (for me) it's resolving to this:

  $ ping archive.vn
  PING archive.vn (94.16.117.236) 56(84) bytes of data.
  64 bytes from v22018085050771054.luckysrv.de (94.16.117.236): icmp_seq=1 ttl=51 time=315 ms
