Yep, I'm seeing 502's all over the web as of a few minutes ago.

So cloudflare.com runs on Cloudflare?

Turtles all the way down.

But in all frankness, if Cloudflare's own site did not run off of Cloudflare's infrastructure, why would anybody trust them with their websites?

So what should the ideal redundancy plan be here? If you can't log into the CDN provider and they are down do you you just have a second one ready (and paid for) and then log into your registrar and be ready to switch to that secondary CDN provider in this scenario? Or is there some sort of load balancing / routing solution between CDN's that I don't know about / understand?

If you use Cloudflare nameservers, you have to change to new nameservers, wait for that to propogate, and then wait for clients cached records TTLs to expire. So it will be a major disruption no matter what you do.

For the site itself that's totally fine, and the status page is separate as it should be, too.

Either downforeveryoneorjustme.com is itself served by Cloudflare too, or has been hugged to death.

It returns 502 Bad Gateway cloudflare so I assume it's not the HN hug...

When you can't update your DNS because your registrar uses CloudFlare also....
