Browser Support • Re: Cloudflare Verification Loop issues

Well, this "infinite cloudflare loop" has finally bitten me on a site that I use regularly: linuxquestions.org. I've brought it up to the LQ admins; maybe they can put some additional pressure on CF.

You might have some luck on this point. I'll explain.

I have been visiting the MX Linux Forum site for the last two years on a daily basis (when possible) when using my linux Pale Moon. And I could always visit the the site without any problems.

https://forum.mxlinux.org/

Then I started getting the CF prompt when I wanted to visit the site and I could not get the site to load since Pale Moon could not get past the challenge. I had to use my backup linux Waterfox browser which passed the CF challenge and allowed me to visit the site. Then after a few weeks of time, I no longer encountered the CF challenge with Waterfox and went straight to the site.

Maybe the maintainers of the MX Linux Forum site recognized my IP address or something which told the maintainers I was not a bot. Then on a hunch, one day I tried again to visit the site using Pale Moon and again, I met the CF challenge. This time though, Pale Moon passed the challenge and I visited the site.

But over the last two weeks, I have been able to get to the site using my Pale Moon browser without encountering the CF challenge. Maybe the maintainers of the site recognized my IP address (again) telling them I was not a bot. Only the browsers were different.

Earlier today, I visited the MX Linux Forum site using Pale Moon and never encountered the CF challenge and the site loaded for me without any problems.
