I've been migrating all my personal stuff to Cloudflare. They have good products and good pricing. At the same time I'm worried about how the internet is becoming even more centralized, which goes against how it was originally designed.

I was trying to look up banana-based jokes ( https://upjoke.com/banana-jokes ) and discovered that London Cloudflare seems to be down. Then, I tried various down detecting sites and they didn't seem to work either - presumably due to Cloudflare.

it's a slippery slope alright

Down, but the linked status page shows mostly operational, except for "Support Portal Availability Issues" and planned maintenance. Since it was linked, I'm curious if others see differently.

edit: It now says "Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues" but it took a while.

It's been 15 minutes of it going up and down, still nothing on their status page...

They've just added it less than a minute ago. I expected a little more responsiveness from Cloudflare...

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
