How did we get to a place where either Cloudflare or AWS having an outage means a large part of the web going down? This centralization is very worrying.

Hacking software or hardware is so old school.

The target these days is the user.

The make-believe worm.

There's something maliciously satisfying about seeing your own self-hosted stuff working while things behind Cloudflare or AWS are broken. Sure, they have like four more nines that me, but right now I'm sitting pretty.

How do you deal with DNS? I'm hosting something on a Raspberry Pi at home, and I had recently moved the DNS to Cloudflare. It's quite funny seeing my small personal website being down, although quite satisfying seeing both the browser and host with a green tick while Cloudflare is down.

There was an article on HN a few days back about how companies like this are influencing the overall freedom of the web (I missed the source) and their own way of doing things. Other examples of influence I see similarly are of Vercel, like with enterprise. Even a few days back, we saw AWS.
