Three Mastodon issues because of Cloudflare Bot protection
Read OriginalThis article details three Mastodon features—domain verification, post preview cards, and author attribution—that stopped working on the author's blog due to Cloudflare's Bot Fight Mode. The decentralized nature of Mastodon causes its crawlers, running on Hetzner infrastructure, to be flagged as suspicious by Cloudflare, resulting in JavaScript challenges that Mastodon's HTTP client cannot solve. The solution is to disable Bot Fight Mode in Cloudflare's dashboard. The post is relevant to IT/technology, covering web hosting, bot protection, and Mastodon integration issues.
