If it's not clear enough, “the Spotify model” is not a good one.

Un article à charge contre CloudFlare. Certes ils sont techniquement très bons, et ils semblent - dans la majorité des cas - être des "gentils", mais on leur confie bien trop de pouvoir.

I turned a tiny #Mac mini into my own #Mastodon server—secure, low‑maintenance, and running like a dream. Here’s the full build, from #Docker to #Cloudflare Tunnel, and why #SelfHosting doesn’t have to be a headache.

🌩️ A deep dive into Cloudflare’s September 12, 2025 dashboard and API outage

｢ The API calls were managed by a React useEffect hook, but we mistakenly included a problematic object in its dependency array. Because this object was recreated on every state or prop change, React treated it as “always new,” causing the useEffect to re-run each time. As a result, the API call executed many times during a single dashboard render instead of just once ｣

It seems that community.nodebb.org is under a DDoS attack at the moment. We have enabled CloudFlare's "under attack" mode which has stopped the attack but it also has the unfortunate side effect of blocking all incoming ActivityPub traffic as well.

Interesting side effect. Will continue to monitor.

Does anyone have any recommendations for an external EUROPEAN DDoS protection service, like Cloudflare? 🤔

(I'm not asking for recommendations for a CDN, thanks.)

Pues por utilizar el proxy de #cloudflare para proteger elblogdelazaro.org, #laliga me acaba de amenazar con denunciarme por omisión de denunciar a #cloudflare por permitir que se utilicen sus servicios para piratear su futbol, lo que me faltaba por ver ya, esto esta tomando un cariz mafiosos que apesta.

#CloudFlare has way too much traffic in their core network!

Once again a fully automated, non-human system is denying me access to a resource on the internet because it has determined I am not human enough.

Let's start with: "The second relay, which is operated by a third-party content provider,...". Who is this 3rd party? Many users, especially here in the Fediverse, would rather jump in a lake than give their data to Cloudflare, the mysterious, 3rd party!

Secondly, while travelling, your IP-address still shows up as you being in your country of origin.

I think I just discovered a fairly large phishing network using #Cloudflare as the registrar. That hides the #WhoIs data.

Many domains are in use, so blocking or reporting one username@domain1.tld is ineffective, because the same email continues to be sent, the next time from username@domain2.tld. Each domain has an MX record from a subnet that provides a different IP for each mail.domain#.tld.
