"Forbidden"

I've always used FireFox for AudioKarma, and every other site for that matter.
Now I get the "Forbidden You don't have permission to access this resource."
Chrome works OK.
Cleared AK cookies and history, no change.
Google search shows this has been a problem in the past.
Suggestions?

Use Chrome. That’s all I got.

Chrome is all I use. Probably my bad but it works.
 
When they added CloudFlare to their server stack, I wasn't able to use Firefox. I got rid of Window entirely, and now I use Linux Brave, and it works right about half the time. It does all sorts of weird things that it didn't do before, but how they run their servers is none of my business.
 
I'm getting the "forbidden" error on my backup phone now, and it is identical to my primary phone, hardware and software (both are running the same Android version, and same current release of Brave browser). Still working on in this phone. I've cleared cache and cookies on the other one, and still can't access AK with it.
 
Getting 403 error with Firefox and High Sierra. Safari on same computer can access AK. I'm posting this message on FF and Linux Mint 22.3.
 
Firefox 150.0.3 with Mac OSX 15.7.3, working fine.
Running Chrome (Version 148.0.7778.179 - arm64) with macOS Tahoe 26.5
I get a singular error every couple days when the site gets loaded down, but otherwise great.
 
3:40 PM EDT... Things now all of a sudden seem to be functional...

I finally just managed to get logged in using Firefox on Win11 as I usually would, but had been getting all kinds of strange errors for the last 15-20 minutes, and also was unable to login from my iPhone yesterday. A lot of "Something went wrong" errors from the login link. I could browse the forums, but most of the threads just kept bringing up "Forbidden 403" errors. Search was also broken.
 
Yesterday was a bunch of 505 errors and would come and go. Last night I started getting the "Forbidden" notice on Chrome and Safari, both on home network (wifi) and over cellular data. So, must have been a site issue as now I can get in. Chrome, Win10, wifi
 
I had the same "Forbidden" message last night and this morning, with multiple attempts using Microsoft Edge. Tried Chrome, still "Forbidden". Cleared my download history, cookies and cached images and file in Microsoft Edge. All back to normal.

I thought maybe I had been a bad boy on my last few posts...
 
Same message here. iPhone Safari on wifi, iPhone Safari on cellular data and on PC with Windows 11. Just started working a few minutes ago.
 
I get iwsues with Emailed links - a direct login worked, so I suspect the links are not being parsed to Email cleanly.
