Do not host podcast feeds behind Cloudfare

Title should possibly be changed to something more descriptive? (Substack podcast feeds inaccessible to Overcast due to Cloudflare blocking)<p>----<p>There&#x27;s some critique here of Cloudflare&#x27;s &quot;good bot&quot; application process as well, which Cloudflare expanded last year (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.cloudflare.com&#x2F;friendly-bots&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.cloudflare.com&#x2F;friendly-bots&#x2F;</a>)<p>Having not worked with it myself, I&#x27;d be curious to know if the complaints here are atypical, since Cloudlfare&#x27;s friendly bot program gets brought up a lot as a defense against their anti-scraping measures.

Would be nice if someone at CloudFlare or Substack saw this. I noticed one of my podcasts not appearing in Overcast and happened to run across this in my Mastodon feed.
