Default Cloudflare 520 error

With my Vivaldi Browser I've been consistently today (several hours) been getting this Error code. Everything mentions a Corvette Forum issue ad NOT me, the ISP or the connection request until it sees corvetteforum.com. Any thoughts? In the past I've seen it a couple times but a refresh of the Browser always corrected it. Today checking a couple times with the newer Edge Browser I was getting the same thing. Then a minute ago the Edge Browser just did a Cloudflare Check and the CF populated.

Is it an issue that's expected more frequently?

It is not just you, or anything on your end.

Some type of web server issue.
Keep in mind that the Corvette forum is just one of many websites that might be hosted on some of these servers.

I kept running into some site verification bs all morning. Finally tried it through google, instead of DuckDuckGo and it worked.

Now I get to enjoy all the Google bs.

Default Check Mark To See If I'm Human

Started today, while still logged in, if a leave the site for a half hour or more, before I can navigate around, I have to do a verify page and check if I'm human, some sort of security thing. Anyone else experiencing that?

Still getting the verification through Edge every time I log in with a check box on my desktop..
Chrome on my tablet automatically navigates past that screen.

Seeing this as well. Don’t like it, but at least I am glad it isn’t my device that is wacko!

This is getting a little ridiculous now, so I tab over to google to do a search, gone maybe 10m, tab back over to CF, locked out with that security page and need to check the human box, so I do that, and I'm right back to that security warning again, do the check again, finally got back to CF.
Is this going to be like this all the time?

Similar experience here. Sometimes accessing the site works as before, sometimes I end up more or less in limbo, and it’s very difficult to back out. Doesn’t seem to matter which browser I use. Sure hope this is not the way it’s going to work moving forward.
