Notes -
My understanding of cloudflare is that they aggregate information about how your browse the internet from the sites that use their service to see if you browse in a humanlike way. Having any sort of adblocking, scriptblocking, cache deletion, history deletion, vpn, cookie blocking, etc might interfere with their ability to verify that you're a human. If they fail-safe and block access... There you go.
That being said, your description of trying different browsers makes me think the above probably isn't your problem. So maybe Cloudflare just thinks your ip is from a region with a lot of bot traffic? Especially if russian, chinese, korean addresses get into america through fiber lines and DNS hops in the bering straight... Maybe try a VPN instead? You can start with one of the free ones online just to test (though fyi those will 100% harvest your data) then get a real service if it works.
