Yes. Weird that https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ isn't reporting this properly. It should be full of red blinking lights.

This is just business as usual, status pages are 95% for show now. The data center would have to be under water for the status page to say "some users might be experiencing disruptions".

They just did an update, and it is bad (in the sense that they are not realizing their clients are down?)

This is not good. One major outage? Something exceptional. Several outages in a short time? As someone thats worked in operations, I have empathy; there are so many “temp havks” that are put in place for incidents. but the rest of the world won’t… they’re gonna suffer a massive reputation loss if this goes on as long as the last one.

Probably fired a lot of their best people in the past few years and replaced it with AI. They have a de-facto monopoly, so we'll just accept it and wait patiently until they fix the problem. You know, business as usual in the grift economy.
