Is anyone having issues with cloudflare websites?
This 'protection' seems to have a problem with Firefox and it's privacy related settings. 😡

Yes, it's been an absolutely obnoxious experience. And if you're using a VPN, forget about it.

Nope. What sort of problems?

It gets stuck on the 'verify you are human' page.
Chromium has no such problems.

If you set protection settings all the way up in Firefox, Cloudflare will get stuck, yes. I do not consider this a shortcoming of Firefox though, my browser is doing the right thing.
Previously, I kept a Chromium instance around, but now I use a second Firefox profile that still has tracking protection enabled, 3rd party cookies restricted etc., but set to a level where e. g. Cloudflare still works. I trust Firefox to better act out my interests. Using -P, the second profile can be started without launching Firefox's profile manager.
With browsers beginning to actively fight fingerprinting techniques, I expect more sites (legit or not) that rely on these techniques to break. That is fine by me.

Yet I do have such problems with Chromium. Not universal though, only on some websites and only sometimes.

For me it doesn't let me pass if i have changed my user agent

Yes, Cloudflare has caused a lot of problems with its broken captcha the last few weeks/month. I use Brave as a backup and it lets that through no problem, which is sad.

What I have noticed is that when using the ESR release you get blocked much more often for some reason.

I've had to disable JShelter for it to let me in.

Its* privacy-related settings.
