Too bad that basically means you can't surf the internet anymore as a majority of websites use Cloudflare. One of my Firefox installations on Linux are also plagued by this. I can't use Firefox to browse the web.
I already do that tbh. The internet is pretty redundant and you can find what you want anywhere.
CloudFlare blocks me from a part of the internet when I use anonymizing tools like Tor. I assumed they just do that to fingerprint and track you. Even the crypto thing to get a dozen or so passes after solving a riddle never worked.
So I have just moved on to websites protected by Akamai, or virtually anything but CloudFlare. It's not just a political decision btw. It's just easier to move on than to try to fight CloudFlare or to become viral on HN to get support.
It shouldn't be up to the user to adapt, but to the website.
