Everybody gets WebSockets

That was possible before with a separate subdomain for DDP/WS. 1. export DDP_DEFAULT_CONNECTION_URL="http(s)://ws.domain.tld" 2. disable CloudFlare proxy (switch to "grey cloud") for that subdomain.

Big deal. I can use it seamlessly with Meteor.

Cloudflare is underrated, I am personally looking forward to their future.

Except if you are behind a restrictive corporate firewall that filters anything not in RFC 2616.

If you are using secure web sockets (wss), this shouldn't be an issue as the traffic goes over port 443 and the proxy won't be able to tell if it's HTTP or another type of traffic.

Curious why they hadn't been doing this all along. This seems like low hanging fruit to add value. Maybe I'm missing something.
