Turkish government just blocked access to YouTube after a terrorist attack - but the Vivaldi browser on my desktop still connects? (lemm.ee)

It also connects to discord, supposed to be blocked since more than a week. No other device or browser I have connects to YouTube, they all get ERR_SOCKET_NOT_CONNECTED, and only a fresh Vivaldi profile on the same pc also connects to Discord, everything else get ERR_CONNECTION_RESET.

I've tried disabling all extensions, it still connects. Checked its IP address and DNS server and they're the same as other devices/browsers. Any idea what could be going on?

I have secure DNS set up on all my devices, this isn't a DNS level block. I tried looking at the chrome Dev tools connection page and I would try wireshark too but idk what to look for, especially when I'm trying to figure out why it works

Edit: I'm pretty sure with normal DNS you get a page saying it's blocked for discord
