This is almost certainly a firewall rule put in place by the operators of that site. My own sites which are protected with Cloudflare do not exhibit this behavior when using Firefox.
Is there a meme like name along the lines of "self-own" when you go online and have a tantrum about someone doing something to you only to find out it's your own doing that caused the issue?
I'm not sure what the cause was, but many sites failed to resolve for me in Firefox (and derivatives) for a month or two straight recently. archive.is was one of them. I think it may still happen with default settings, but I solved it by turning off DNS-over-HTTPS (which I think is a stupid feature anyway)
Basically archive.is has an issue with the way Cloudflare DNS does things. This will also affect DNS over HTTPS as Cloudflare is the default DoH provider in Firefox.
(I’m responsible for Cloudflare’s L7 security products) While we can’t comment on the specifics of any customer configuration, we do not block or challenge Firefox by default—either with our Bot Management products or with any other L7 security controls. You can confirm this by signing up a free zone and making a request from Firefox.

Can customers configure Firefox as one of the criteria for a challenge?

So should we all suffer because Apple is greedy and fails to win in a fair fight with Google Chrome ?
What is fair about bending W3C into Chrome OS? Ah, Google isn't Microsoft, and that do no evil stuff.
I test my stuff in Firefox and Chrome, can't check Safari or Safari Beta so if you really want more support for Safari you need to ask Apple to sacrifice a bit of profit and give developers virtual machines or whatever web service to be able to test their code.
But if you are honest with yourself you know the exact reason why Firefox is not allowed to be an option on iOS and the answer is simple, profits and sure a company is obligated to max out profits.

I just followed your link and it says, "Your browser is not supported. We recommend using the latest version of Safari, Microsoft Edge, or Chrome." So apparently Firefox is subversive and scary enough to make Apple refer me to Microsoft or Google to avoid it. I guess that's what passes for "Think Different" at Apple these days.
I tried spoofing Safari's and Chrome's User-Agent string in Firefox and business.apple.com still blocks me because I'm not using a real Safari or Chrome. So they appear to be using feature detection of some API that's not available in Firefox. I see that the site also blocks Apple's own Safari browser on iOS. Looks like this site was been blocking Firefox users since at least 2018, according to the bug report on Mozi…
it seems they recently changed something, because now I can't even load the login page properly anymore due to X-Frame-Options disallowing the embed of the auth iframe.

If your problem is with bad developers not following the standards then why is your solution to screw the users. Find a solution for the problem bad developers and greedy companies. Such a solution for preventing IE6 like cases is to remind Apple that users should be able to install alternative browsers.
