Can't you configure exceptions for behaviours?

I'm not sure what can be done at the free tier. There is a switch to turn on AI not blocking, and it breaks federation.

You can't whitelist domains because federation could come from and domain. Maybe you could somehow whitelist /inbox for the ActivityPub communication, but I'm not sure how to do that in Cloudflare.
