And it's written in Haskell. Which makes me want to take a look at Haskell again :)
I thought they used Ur/Web.

An accusation should not be sufficient, obviously. Why can't CloudFlare take abuse complaints, verify and take action based on that? In fact, this is precisely what they've done in the past, though they'd only provide the host details rather than stopping service to a site. (I don't think they'll even go this far anymore, rather they'll give you the abuse email for the host and tell you to have the host contact them,…
Your experience seems to contradict the insinuation that "Cloudflare is knowingly providing cover to the DDOS-for-hire companies after being informed of what they are doing", to which I responded. So I guess there's no problem after all?

Or he saw the other guy is open to trying different RSS readers and simply made a recommendation.
I'm moving TO Feedly since they've already had their attack. Next round would be the some other provider.

Multiple devices is the main reason I rely on a web service.
That's why I read RSS via IMAP. All of my devices have an IMAP client on them. I have a script which downloads RSS feeds and sends an email to me for each item, which is then filtered into a News folder via a Sieve filter. I spend half my time in my email clients anyway so I may as well get my RSS fix in the same place.
Personally I'm beginning to hate email... sorta wish the actually-important stuff in my email were sent to my RSS reader...

Are you actually claiming that CloudFlare is paying for DDoS attacks, or is that a really poor metaphor?
Perhaps a poor metaphor in your opinion. I don't believe, nor did I claim, CloudFlare themselves is carrying out DDoS attacks. What they _are_ doing is making it way easier for others to do it. So, perhaps more to your liking would be selling armed guard services to guard against a gang robbery, while simultaneously funding and supporting (but not actually participating in, i.e. not actually providing people for) sai…
This metaphor got long and stupid, but at least its accurate. Stop fear-mongering just because you don't like CloudFlare.

If you're looking for an actual metaphor, it would be selling armed guard services to you and also to gangs. Its not even clear, in this metaphor, that said armed guard vendor can even tell the difference between law-abiding citizens and gangs - and they can't just shut down services to anyone accused of being a gang, because then the gangs get you by telling ARMED GUARDS, INC that you're a gang and then robbing you…
They don't do that, but continue to sell their DDoS protection service (beyond the free tier), so they are indeed a racketeering operation.
