> Cloudflare verifications are destroying the web.

Seconded.

At least for me, on Tor.

A lot of sites are behind Cloudflare.

The other killer problem of course are cookie-consent banners, and the considerable proportion of sites which have taken to emitting full-page modal dialogs the instant you view the site, or after you scroll down, or when you move the pointer upwards to pick another tab.

The amount of stuff you have to wade through to get to or use a site has reached the point where casual browsing isn't viable, not with Tor, not for me.

Cloudflare exposes Tor as a country that can be blocked, so a website operator could choose to block Tor for their website just as they could block any other country.

Are you seeing more blocks than that?
