Why does the Cloudflare thing behave differently when I'm at work and at home?

Cloudflare apparently has different protocols for different browsers. I've experienced the same thing. Sorry it's obnoxious, the only other alternative with our zero budget is to have this place overrun by bot spam.

This place is still overrun by bot spam even with Cloudflare.
The solution to bot spam is to keep only a handful of subs that are actively moderated.
 
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results."
 
Edit:
e.g. This bot managed to post spam to comment/replies - even with Cloudflare on.
