        Are the verification pages for everyone or just more privacy focused browsers? They seem very common.

          Basically, if Cloudflare doesn't like anything at all about you, you'll get a verification page. And, since apparently Cloudflare only has object permanence for Chromium, they'll flag other browsers as suspicious and force you to jump hoops for using them.

              we're currently challenging visitors who aren't logged in regardless of the browser due to extremely aggressive LLM scrapers. as long as you're staying logged in you won't get challenged.

                  The Waterfox browser lets you force Dark Mode on everything.

                      I just use light mode all the time and I don’t have to worry about it. 😏

                          Just wanna note that the domain owner is the one who elected to use that level of security check, though TBF CF doesn't make it very granular (and why enterprises tend to use their own WAFs)

                          https://duckduckgo.com/?q=cloudflare+security+levels&ia=images&iax=images&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fmediafortress.com.au%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2022%2F08%2FCloudflare-security-level.gif

                          Edit: for the record I don't at all judge. Web has rampant bit activity these days and it's a lot even for a large team.

                          Slash there are other settings in CF that could affect the behavior so it could be something else. Sae a comment that it was login-aware which makes me think it's more than just the security levels

                            Feels like I still occasionally get flash-banged with a blank white screen before it kicks in

                              Isn’t it trivial for scrapers to provide login credentials? Or is a login wall sufficient to keep the scrapers away?

                                  I don't understand why visual dynamics limiters/compressors don't exist as audio dynamics limiters/compressors are foundational tools in audio engineering and the math isn't that different.

                                  Dark Mode in a dark room will always be an anxiety inducing experience because it is exactly like not putting a hard limiter on your audio chain to protect against sudden loud noises destroying your ears.

                                  What is needed are a suite of visual dynamics tools at nearly the last step of graphical display, it could even be a setting on computer monitors themselves. It pisses me off this doesn't already exist honestly.

                                    it would be trivial for them to not DDoS and yet they keep doing it.

                                    if they were calling Lemmy APIs directly they would significantly reduce the load they bring to our service. if they were speaking ActivityPub they could even get the content delivered to their front door directly via federation.

                                    they don't care that they DDoS websites. they don't care about optimizing for how certain types of websites are built, to reduce impact on third parties. the only language they speak is DDoS.

                                    they intentionally spoof legitimate browser user agents and cycle through massive ranges of IP addresses. they have enormous pools of IPv4 addresses available that allow them to only use each IP for a couple of requests before cycling to the next one, which is yet another way they evade detection, as they are bypassing any rate limits we have configured that way.

                                      f.lux is the software you seek. It’s been around since the 90’s.

                                        I use dark reader but it don't seem to work in this particular case, at least not on librewolf.
