Using Cloudflare on your website could be blocking RSS users

Cloudflare's security features could be blocking RSS feed users from accessing your website

The only way to resolve when Cloudflare blocks an RSS reader from accessing your website is by contacting you directly and asking you to make a custom rule to unblock it. If Cloudflare has successfully approved an RSS reader as a "good bot", it shouldn't be blocked or still require website owners to add any custom exception rules. To be clear, there's nothing wrong with using Cloudflare's security tools on your website to help deal with malicious AI bots, scrapers, and potential attacks.
