Is Variety Vista Down?

Yes the issue is just with that one site not using https. You should be able to access other https sites fine that use it, but if you attempt to use https on vvista I noticed it didnt connect at all, but if you use it without the https (just http) it connected ok for me. So either you were attempting with https or some browser setting is trying to now auto upgrade/change that connection to https when you use http and possibly all connections to https so might need to check for a setting depending on the web browser.

As bobby said that specific site should not be an issue but don't use unsecured when dealing with financial data, payments or other personal info at minimum - make sure those are using https

You can try these fixes:

go to edge://settings/privacy
turn off "automatically switch to more secure connections with automatic HTTPS"

restart the browser and use http://, or then can also try

Add the site to the allow list under Insecure content.
edge://settings/content/insecureContent
click Add next to Allow
Enter the URL and click add
see if you still have a problem accessing the site or switching between the two

Also until you fix it remember you may be able to access some links http://) through archive.org at least.

Excellent!

I wonder too.
If there is a possible technical problem out there, I will get it

Just a thought. Make sure your search engine is up dated.
Try a restart on the phone.

Have you guys tried going into your browser cache and deleting specifically the content for that site? Every once in a while, I can't load the NumisMedia coin price guides. It's always a problem with the cached data, probably an embedded advertisement with bad code. I delete that data from Settings > Safari and the site will immediately load again.

Sometimes I have to reload VV in order for it to come up.

Excellent!
