Spinner runs infinitely when trying to post to a Cloudflared node - eviltoast

I tried to post in a zerobytes.monster community from a normal (non-Cloudflared) instance using Tor Browser. When I clicked the button to submit the post, it just became an endlessly spinning icon.

Then I posted on a non-Cloudflare instance instead, which worked fine. Then I tried to cross-post it to zerobytes.monster. Again, non-stop spinner.

I suspect the problem is that even though I’m actually on node A, when I direct the content to post on node B there is perhaps a direct connection being made to node B. When node B is tor-hostile (e.g. Cloudflare) it’s blocking the packets. But the software is not smart about this… just leaves the user hanging.

Now I wonder if the other endless spinner I encountered when trying to create an account somewhere is a Cloudflare-induced issue as well:
