At 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

Think about this rationally. If Cloudflare doesn't fix it within reasonable time, you can just point to different name servers and have your problem fixed in minutes.

So why be on Cloudflare to start with? Well, if you have a more reliable way then there's no reason. If you have a less reliable way, then you're on average better off with Cloudflare.

Pretty much everything is down (checking from the Netherlands). The Cloudflare dashboard itself is experiencing an outage as well. Not-so-funny thing is that the Betterstack dashboard is down but our status page hosted by Betterstack is up, and we can't access the dashboard to create an incident and let our customers know what's going on. Edit: wording.

This is a big one.

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

They better not be using AI to fix this... especially if AI is what caused it! (looking at you, AWS)
