I don't post Slashdot links much here, since they're generally summarizing another site, but in this case, I think they explain it better than the link. The tl;dr is that a bunch of browsers as basically hosed if people try to use them on Cloudflare sites (and it's not like you can really avoid hitting CF sites). The only browser listed here that I've used a bunch is Seamonkey, but I do like trying new browsers periodically, and this is crappy for any developers of them.

If you have adguardhome installed in your LAN you can block cloudflare inside it.

Cloudflare is a bad actor, another gatekeeper :(, this time the excuse is to "protect" your site for DDoS and a "better" CDN ... fuck them. If you have a blog/personal site or a small ecommerce, try to avoid it as "the default" way to improve, you don't need them.
If you wan to see how fuck up is the actual web experience... use tor browser... CF appears before in almost every fucking page.
