PWABuilder can't find web manifest (403 error)

Error Message

The PWA Builder tool from Microsoft used to package PWAs for app stores won’t work as it can’t seem to find my manifest file (which exists and is valid and everything) https://crosstracks.rf.gd/manifest.json

PWABuilder

The tool used by their PWA building tool for some reason finds a 403 forbidden error, while I can navigate to the manifest normally in the browser?

Other Information

Am I blocking the site somehow in my InfinityFree settings and how can I allow access to my manifest file?

Maybe due to this:

Ah, yes probably.
Any workarounds on the infinityfree side, like a whitelist for a domain or something? Otherwise I guess only PWA Builder can do something

Setting up Cloudflare may be able to get around it. I have never tried it for this purpose, so please let me know the outcome if you choose to try it!
