Tell HN: Cloudflare is blocking Pale Moon and other non-mainstream browsers

Hello.<p>Cloudflare's Browser Intergrity Check/Verification/Challenge feature used by many websites, is denying access to users of non-mainstream browsers like Pale Moon.<p>Users reports began on January 31:<p><a href="https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=32045" rel="nofollow">https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=32045</a><p>This situation occurs at least once a year, and there is no easy way to contact Cloudflare. Their "Submit feedback" tool yields no results. A Cloudflare Community topic was flagged as "spam" by members of that community and was promptly locked with no real solution, and no official response from Cloudflare:<p><a href="https://community.cloudflare.com/t/access-denied-to-pale-moon-desktop-browser/764330" rel="nofollow">https://community.cloudflare.com/t/access-denied-to-pale-moo...</a><p>Partial list of other browsers that are being denied access:<p>Falkon, SeaMonkey, IceCat, Basilisk.<p>Hacker News 2022 post about the same issue, which brought attention and had Cloudflare quickly patching the issue:<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31317886">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31317886</a><p>A Cloudflare product manager declared back then: "...we do not want to be in the business of saying one browser is more legitimate than another."<p>As of now, there is no official response from Cloudflare. Internet access is still denied by their tool.
