This post is currently top-1 when sorting by controversial. Objectively amazing bait.
O.o Do you understand what Cloudflare actually does?
Provides a single point of failure for a large portion of the internet that nobody else has any control over?
So no, then.
Using cloudflare is more reliable than using your own stuff which is still an option that nobody chooses anymore because it’s better to choose cloudflare or something similar.
I’m going to go ahead and assume you don’t work with internet security in any way, have no experience in web development, and have never attempted to provide web application services to more people than you can count on your fingers, but if you had, cloudflare is mana from heaven.
This persons main connection to the internet is hentai.
Just… save your braincells.
I hopped in this thread then shortly thereafter got redirected to a cloudfare bad gateway page. It’s a conspiracy.
I want to upvote and downvote this post… it’s so controversial
Honestly, I don’t know how any end user who doesn’t understand IT and wasn’t around before services like Cloudflare were available can say this. They objectively don’t have the information or experience to make the claim.
I’ve been using the intermet since 2003 and have seen no difference except when cloudfare breaks.
Throwback to when 1.1.1.1 dropped and we all loved couldflare
Literally trying to figure out if Cloudflare or tailscale would be the best way to go. The memes have spoken
Cloudflare is excellent, this post is nonsense.
203 upvotes, 202 downvotes. The most controversial lemmy post I’ve ever seen
I feel like I’m making history. A real end user vs tech people conundrum.
