It's probably a recurrence of the same issue.
If your domain links to content that AVs flag as malware, it gets blocked on FB. Distrowatch is likely uniquely susceptible to this because they're constantly linking to novel, 3rd-party tarballs (via the "Latest Packages" column).
In this case, it was the Privoxy 4.0.0 release from the 18th. You can see it linked in this Jan 19 snapshot of the site: https://web.archive.org/web/20250119125004/https://distrowatch.com/#:~:text=privoxy%20%E2%80%A2-,4.0.0,-01/17 https://web.archive.org/web/20250119125004/https://distrowat...
