I was joking that after AWS, Azure that the Cloudflare would be next one... So which large service we have left that could take chunk of internet out?

Re: Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues
#102Everyone laughs when AWS collapses, everyone is silent when Cloudflare collapses. Why? Because the place to laugh has collapsed.
Except on HN
HAHA!
Our servers are still down, though
Re: Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues
#103I do appreciate the visual "mea culpa": Your browser: Working Host: Working Cloudflare: Error
And at the bottom:
What can I do?
Please try again in a few minutes.
Re: Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues
#104Cloudflare seems to have degrated performance. Half the requests for my site throw cloudflare 500x errors, the other half work fine.
However the https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ does not really mention anything relevant. What's the point of having a status page if it lies ?
Update Ah I just checked the status and now I get a big red warning (however the problem existed for like 15 minutes before 11:48 UTC):
> Investigating - Cloudflare is aware of, and investigating an issue which potentially impacts multiple customers. Further detail will be provided as more information becomes available. Nov 18, 2025 - 11:48 UTC

#105At some point we really need to think if this is the web we want, one/two major actors are down and everything goes with it Not downplaying the immense work of infra / engineering at this scale but my neighborhood local grocery market shouldn’t be down
Decentralisation is at some point directly opposed to operational efficiency, when the sun is shining.
Re: Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues
#106Update: It seems to be back, the downtime lasted maybe 5-6 minutes
It came back up for me, now it's down again.
EDIT: I am in the UK, using the London Cloudflare server.

#107Seems like ChatGPT and Claude are also affected. (CLI Codex still seems to work).
RIP to the engineers fixing this without any AI help.

#108I had two completely unrelated tabs open ( https://twitter.com and https://onsensensei.com ) both showing the same error. Opened another website, same error. Kinda funny to see how much of entire web is ran on CloudFlare nowadays.
Love how everyone plays with redundancy - multiple hosts, balance loader, etc, and yet half of the web relies on single point of failure being CF
