Why not build the next cloudflare then, I'm sure it is appreciated by HN folks.
Or maybe we just move away from cloudflare-like services altogether.
To mars data center right?

#92https://downdetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetector.... reports that https://downdetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetector.com/ is down, guessing downdetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetector runs via cloudflare!
We need a set of down detectors that all detect if each other are down, and produce an answer via quorum.
I think CAP theorem says this is impossible.

#93How are these clowns deploying stuff on a Friday, it is unbelievable to me. It is not even funny any more. It seems cloudflare is held together by marketing only. They should stop all of these stupid initiatives and keep their stack simple. And I'm 100% sure the management responsible for this is already fueling up the ferraris to drive to their beach house. All of us make them rich and they keep on enshittifying the…
how do you tell they deployed new stuff?

Hence why I wrote a post on 18th of Nov (previous Cloudflare outage): https://huijzer.xyz/posts/123/do-not-put-your-site-behind-cl... . That blog post made it to the front page of HN and my site did not go down. Nor did any DDoS network take the site out even though I also challenged them last time by commenting that I would be okay with a DDoS. I would figure out a way around it. In general, marketing often works vi…
Cloudflare is widely used because it's the easiest way to run a website for free or expose local services to internet. I think for most cloudflare users, the ddos protection is not the main reason they're using it.
I am using cloudflare because the origin servers are IPv6 only.

What are you implying by linking to that article?
I'm not the person you are replying to, but like all of technology, you just find the latest (or most public) change made, and then fire your blame-cannon at it.
Excel crashed? Must be that new WiFi they installed!

#99Edinburgh Airport is also down, suspending all flights after an "IT issue with our air traffic control provider". Not sure if this is coincidental, but the timing is rather suspicious!
Annoyingly I wanted to fly a parcel from Edinburgh up to Stornoway, but it's looking like I'd be quicker driving the seven hours up to the ferry terminal myself.

If the deployment was related to the React Server issue then maybe it was unavoidable.
