Cloudfare "problems" (sh.itjust.works)

I have this amazing site I like and everytime I want to enter it, it shows me this

I was running browsing the internet and I saw that some extension on firefox would get rid of this problem, it was on a meme on either lemmy or on reddit. But, yeah, is there an extension to get rid of the Cloudfare "Checking if your connection is secure" stuff? I am tired of it

Of c, I can just google or search for an extension in the extensions store, but I trust you guys will have the best solution, so here I am. Thank you!

Cloudflare is a service that helps mitigate denial of service attacks, it's not for you, it's to protect the site you're visiting.

I know, but I as the end user have to endure questions like "Are you a human?"

I am pretty sure the bot asking me this is not human, oh the irony

If you get this a lot on different sites, you might be resisting fingerprinting

I have to deal with this, because I have 6 cookies and ads blocking extensions that does a very good job at blocking any tracking of my online activity.
