    Thanks for the explanation. I’m not sure why it works for half the time, though, as people are definitely seeing it. Is it because of the amount of traffic the gif has caused to Yarn.co after being embedded into a Lemmy post?

      I guess not everyone’s traffic is being deemed unusual/suspicious. There are many deciding factors that cloudflare could use to differentiate from “normal” traffic, such as location, browser, OS, VPN usage etc.
