LibreWolf is next, and it's not exactly niche. I'm seeing it more and more, and LW defaults, even dropping resist settings, gets bounced by CloudFlare every time.

Wouldn't that also block Firefox by proxy?

Doesn't seem to. I turned off all the LW resist options, plus all my extensions, and still ended up in an infinite loop. But same extensions in FF doesn't seem to have an effect.

And so far LibreWolf and Icecat have both worked fine for me.
