NiteLite (@NiteLiteDF) reported@thekitze Just tell it to go through and update all the tokens in a browser, pausing if it needs login from you, and put them into cloudflare.

kit (sane and normal) (@nicemodems) reportedcloudflare pages is free, and is connected to other cloudflare services that i already use. i'm wary of the limits, but they might not actually be that bad.

Jimmy Q (@Jimmyq_startup) reported[Fixed] Domain verification for Gmail (Cloudflare) TDLR: Expected ~10 min setup took days; found a bug in Gmail domain verification and a workaround. 1. Initially, Cloudflare's direct verification was used in Google, and it added the TXT "Google-site..." in DNS. Nothing else was prompted. Waited a long time, no update. 2. Fix: went to manual verification and saw that I also have to add a CNAME in DNS. After that, hit finish and - Viola! - domain verified. #gmail #indiedev

Darrell Brogdon (@dbrogdon) reportedCan't log into Cloudflare. Microsoft365 isn't forwarding emails. On, and on, and on, and on. And that's just today. This is EVERY DAY. We have tools for tools in tech. We have CI/CD. We have automated tests. We have all these things to improve quality. Quality in tech is TERRIBLE. WHAT ARE WE DOING?!!?!

Andrew Shebanow (@Shebanator) reported@mymind Are you down? I'm getting consistent 403s from cloudflare when I try to log in. Thanks.

Josh (@variumm) reported@IfeeDev @levelsio @Cloudflare Not really mate I’ve set up dozens of mail servers. Someone sending over Cloudflare probably doesn’t need to receive like a traditional inbox so there’s no point of a full mail service.
-
Alex Y (@AlexYusdut) reportedThe redirect-loop fix nobody tells you: if you proxy through Cloudflare, set SSL to Full (strict) — NOT "Flexible." Flexible is literally what causes the infinite loop. Or set the record to DNS-only (grey cloud).

Santiago Carvajal Garcia (@Santiagocarva_) reportedthis reminds me of those old xploitz-style tools back in the day, you’d make a fake facebook login page, drop the link, and as soon as someone entered their credentials you’d get them instantly. with Cloudflare Drop, attackers can basically do the same thing now but way easier, no account needed, drag and drop a folder, and use some javascript to steal the login details in real time. this could end really badly. but heyyy, good idea btw

Arpit Bhayani (@arpit_bhayani) reportedCloudflare has been building Meerkat, their new global consensus service, built on a protocol called QuePaxa instead of the usual Raft or Paxos. To be honest, I did not know about QuePaxa before this. I learned about it from the post itself, and it is genuinely interesting. Most consensus systems, like Raft, rely on timeouts to detect a dead leader and trigger a new election. That works fine until your network latency fluctuates a lot, which is exactly what Cloudflare deals with every day. Too short a timeout, and replicas panic and block writes. Too long, and the system just sits there while something is actually broken. So instead of Raft, Meerkat runs on QuePaxa. Here is how QuePaxa avoids the leader problem. A client does not need to go through a leader at all; it can contact any replica, and that replica can drive consensus for the current slot on its own. A leader still exists in the system, and it has one advantage: if it is the one proposing, it takes just one round trip to reach a decision. A non-leader replica needs three or more round-trip to do the same thing. So the leader speeds things up, but it is not a requirement for progress. If the leader goes down or slows down, any other replica simply picks up the work, and writing keeps flowing. Also, concurrent proposals do not conflict destructively. The replicas coordinate and converge on a single agreed value regardless. Interestingly, Cloudflare is planning to build a full key-value store and a leasing system on top of it. I have started reading up on QuePaxa after this post, and wanted to share what I found first. Hope this helps.

Laura Rupprecht 🧀👩🏼💻 (@LCRcircuit) reported@GergelyOrosz I lost a lot of confidence in Notion when one of my uploaded files became inaccessible and support closed the ticket claiming my computer firewall (which I don't have) was somehow blocking the outbound request despite being able to load their cloudflare block page

Ruchit Dalwadi (@ruchitdalwadi) reported@Cloudflare @OpenAI Search quality is increasingly a data-contract problem. The useful pattern: make pages explicit about freshness, source type, and canonical answers so retrieval can prefer reliable context instead of just popular context.

Beeno Tung (@beenotung) reported@BraydenWilmoth I tried to drop a simple site to cloudflare drop. It is not working, got 404 error without even a nice looking fallback page, the response content length is zero.
-
Vincent-psych (@VincentPsychSE) reported@George4Tea @KnownHeretic I advocate for steps like 'controlled frustration' — implement strict DNS filters (Next-DNS/Pi-hole, CloudFlare), throttle speeds during certain hours, intermittent router restarts, and signal-limiting via access points or parental apps—these deter without destruction while maintaining oversight. Also, devices should not be upgraded or improved, research shows that even milliseconds delays change the dopamine hit. Parents often say they'll "do whatever it takes" but they won't affect the internet because they also rely on it for emotional regulation.

Clifford Richardson (@CorvusCrypto) reportedRule 1 on @ycombinator's historically useful forum: Thou shalt not let someone apply nuance or call for positivity around another's developments Sorry jonluca, you have broken the rule and will now need to be erased from the universe by Garry and gang. Seriously, it's a problem and I wish it got more attention rather than let people encourage each other to be more and more cynical. Many are doing their part like this chap to call it out, but what I have hidden is just... depressing. Skepticism and critical feedback is great. Comments like "Cool, just 20 years too late." (a real comment on the cloudflare drop post) is not great.

Stabledash (@stabledash) reportedAWS and Cloudflare have quietly turned on a new option for any publisher running on their infrastructure: the server can return an x402 payment code instead of a flat 404 when an AI bot hits their content. .@_rishinsharma, Head of AI Growth at @Solana Foundation, breaks down what that unlocks: "Say I have a blog, and it's hosted on AWS Bedrock, and I just write about financial data or something like that. By default, AWS will block bot traffic. So if they detect someone is a bot, they'll just block that traffic. If someone from an LLM is trying to get something I've written about, it'll just return a 404. It can return a 402, I can put in a wallet address, and I can actually get paid and monetize that traffic." His read on why subscriptions already lost this audience: "I think for content publishers, this is gonna be a new way for them to reach an audience, because two, three years ago, I was subscribed to a ton of Substacks, where I was paying for a couple of them too. It felt like a way to get alpha. Now I can't imagine, I don't wanna open my email and go to a Substack, and maybe this is an attention deficit thing, but I can't even read long form content. What's the important part? Skip to that one."

Hot Aisle (@HotAisle) reportedI actually like bun a lot and would be bummed to have to go back to node. These things are just build tools for me, I don’t actually use them in production myself since I deploy on Cloudflare and running it is their problem. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Phil | Rentier Digital Automation (@rentierdigital) reportedyour seo strategy just became someone else's api call, and that someone else showed up 18 months early cloudflare predicted bot traffic would overtake human traffic by 2027. june 3 happened instead. 57.5% bots, 42.5% humans prediction shattered. matthew prince himself said it faster than expected. the web already flipped but here's what matters more than the headline number: claudebot pulls 23,951 pages per referral. perplexity does 111. google search does 4.9 same web completely different appetite depending which crawler shows up. your site either feeds the machine or gets skipped. there's no middle ground anymore the citations are spiking now. one e-commerce site i watch went from 52 bing ai citations a day in may to 117 in june. june 22 alone hit 277. timing lines up with the cloudflare crossover close enough that calling it coincidence feels willfully blind cloudflare already shipped a monetization gateway this week. live infrastructure. stablecoin micropayments between machines no api key required, no beta waitlist. 43% of parents would let an ai agent buy within budget. 80% of executives think agentic ai is survival by 2027 the infrastructure exists. the buyers exist. the only question left is whether your site is readable when they arrive i build and ship daily. Claude Code, Codex, whatever ships fastest. SaaS, tools, automations. ⭐ if AI can build it, i've probably broken it first. what works → link in bio

JB (@justbuilding) reported@levelsio @Cloudflare Cloudflare is probably the greatest service I use. I almost feel guilty being on the free tiers.

Phil | Rentier Digital Automation (@rentierdigital) reportedbot traffic won eighteen months early. cloudflare's ceo predicted 2027, happened june 3rd. 57.5% bots, 42.5% humans. done but nobody talks about the appetite difference. claudebot pulls 23,951 pages per referral. perplexity does 111. google search does 4.9 same web, completely different hunger depending which crawler shows up i manage an ecommerce site. bing ai citations jumped from 52/day in may to 117 in june. june 22 alone hit 277. timing lines up with cloudflare's crossover close enough that calling it coincidence feels willfully blind cloudflare just shipped a monetization gateway this week machine-to-machine payments, stablecoin micropayments, agents paying per access. not announced. live. already running the part that should actually worry you: agentic traffic (agents completing tasks, not just crawling) was only 1.7% of bot traffic in 2024. but it grew 7,851% in a year. the headline crossover is here the part still accelerating is the part that buys things you don't need every page agent-readable you need the time-sensitive ones. pricing, availability, current state. those are the pages that actually get fetched when an llm goes live mid-conversation. everything already in the model's weights answers cold, no site visited, no citation earned i build and ship daily. Claude Code, Codex, whatever ships fastest. SaaS, tools, automations. ⭐ if AI can build it, i've probably broken it first. what works → link in bio

Zain Wania (@Zain_Wania) reported@aarondfrancis I just tried it again a few hours later and no issues. Might be a cloudflare blip. Anyways, loving solo, but I noticed I can’t click Claude codes special little links for things, they presumably did a hacks thing that makes certain text look and work like hyperlinks and it’s a pretty nasty papercut I’m feeling my not being able to click on those.

jason silberman (@_jasonsilberman) reportedthanks to everyone at cloudflare for responding and helping resolve this! it's great to see this level of customer support on X, and i hope the in product customer support continues to improve. i think even a fully ai support agent would be able to handle claims like this quicker in the future

Derek Ashauer (@DerekAshauer) reportedMoving all my client sites to a new host! Been putting this off for two years. Claude + VS Code (desktop couldn't do the API connections I needed) finally made it doable instead of an admin nightmare. Instead of manually chasing down info on 50+ sites, I had Claude connect to APIs and do the grunt work. Claude connected to my hosting account API and pulled the list of domains. Then it used the Freshbooks API (my client billing/invoicing tool) to grab client contact info. Matched them together magically since I don't have direct domain <> client data. Then it did DNS lookups to figure out where each domain is registered. All the pattern-matching work that would've taken me hours. Many of my clients have been with me for 10+ years. I have long since lost their domain logins or 2FA now prevents me from getting in, so... Claude drafted custom emails directly in Gmail for every client I didn't already have delegate access. Each one has the exact instructions for their specific domain registrar on how to invite me to have access. Now, I'm just handling the email conversations. As they respond, the master list Claude and I are compiling gets updated. I might even try letting Claude fully respond in Gmail too and update this list automatically as the conversations happen - we'll see. Claude also connected to the Cloudflare API to set up DNS records to get as many domains into a central DNS management account. Once all setup, the migrations to the new host should be pretty straightforward from here thanks to the awesome new host having done this many times before and have automated processes to do it. I will have to manually change the DNS for most of them though (but not a bad thing because of how important that is) - but once I have access to all doing so should be quick. This migration would've taken me weeks to do manually and why I avoided it for nearly 2 years since I first started considering it. I'm doing this as I dwindle down my clients to the simple, easy to manage ones - I will be saving nearly $3k/year in base hosting costs. More importantly, I have plans around products that the new host will be great at helping me get off the ground - more on that later once this first phase is complete! All this running in the background while I am still working on products.
