Context: Generator only: read-only (writes 404), no single-user URL, field filters ignored. Its sibling uinames.com is already dead.
What we check: GET https://randomuser.me/api/?results=1 — a plain, keyless request from Cloudflare's network with an honest bot UA, exactly what a tutorial curl or an <img> tag experiences. OK = HTTP 2xx/3xx within 8s. No retries, no cookies, no API keys.
If randomuser.me is failing (or you're tired of finding out mid-demo), Mockbird gives you a seeded fake-data REST API that answers right now — and unlike the classics, writes actually persist — free, no signup:
