General Discussion • Re: CloudFlare discussion thread

In my opinion Cloudflare does not want to support Pale Moon. This is the short of it.

I think its more likely they don't want to waste much energy in supporting Pale Moon.

They want to use the least energy possible to support Pale Moon so they can appear like they don't have favorites.

They are supposed to speak directly with @Moonchild this week and Cloudflare's rep claims that they are trying to fix things with respect to Pale Moon longer term, so let's see if anything good comes of it. I'm forever hopeful. Certainly they responded faster this time around and implemented a temporary fix faster than when it happened last spring, even if their response time still hasn't been perfect.

My bigger problem is that I am now running into Cloudflare turnstiles all the time and even if they don't stop Pale Moon they slow all web browsing to a crawl compared to just a few years ago. And they make it nearly impossible to get things done online with a non-js browser, which wasn't the case 3-4 years ago. I used to be able to go 2 weeks at a time with using nothing but a links2 terminal browser, an rss feed reader, and an email client. But that setup would be basically impossible today.
