Yes, not worldwide but a lot of places. Problem with our backbone. We know what. Rollbacks etc. happening. Bring it back up in chunks. Should be back up everywhere.
Thanks for the update, just curious if we will get a report on what happened ? In as much detail as can be of course - morbid curiosity mainly. I love the post reports these events usually bring.
Am I wrong to use this as an excuse to not use Cloudflare?
For anyone else needing their services, they are a perfectly reliable provider (most of the time). Would make sense to ensure a fail-over, though.
Shouldn't have happened in the first place. Should have had something that worked on their own website to indicate the service is down, not needing to come to a somewhat obscure tech forum to find out the details.
I don't understand why companies simply don't have outages, it seems like it would be a lot less stressful.

Someone should a website that collates the approx. 90M times this sentiment has been made on this website (a good chunk of me making it) just a reminder how nothing somehow changes on this front the moment it comes back up and people go back to relying on single SAAS's for everything.
To be fair this is not relying on a single SaaS for everything but many people relying on a single SaaS. I mean if you want to use a reverse proxy/CDN, you must rely on someone .

Ah, well in that case they already have that so no need to complain: https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/
The comment on HN had more useful information (that the issue was understood and a fix coming) before that status page then updated. I think that's their point. Prior to that, it was some time (in the "all my sites are wrecked" timescale) before the status page had any indication of an outage.

Like I understand how websites can be served using a CDN and how a lot of the internet depends on that... but I don't see how gaming services like Valorant or cloud providers like AWS or chat room like Discord depend on Cloudflare.
Thanks!
This was very educational, all of a sudden I couldn't reach 60% of all websites I normally visit everyday. I guess this is the cost of laziness under the guise of DDOS protection.

They're talking about getting accurate information from an employee posting on HN rather than on the status page, rather than the outage itself.
