[Bug]: fails to load images from placekitten.com
trafficstars
Summary
The sample code in the React documentation that uses placekitten.com fails to display images due to a host error.

Details
In the sample code, images are not displaying. When entering the image URL in a browser, it shows "Web server is down, Error code 521, placekitten.com Host Error."
I am observing the same issue: only the text from the alt attribute is visible. The content is too small to force a scroll appearance, which makes this example ineffective.
