    S3 changed everything when Amazon built storage on top of REST APIs and HTTP in the early 2000s. They made a simple bet that eventual consistency was good enough for most use cases, and they were right. The architecture spread data across availability zones using erasure coding, hitting 99.999999999% durability through cross-region replication. What started as eight microservices grew to over 300 by 2022, handling exabytes of data with response times under a millisecond. The pricing model came from old school colocation thinking. Back then, bandwidth actually cost money because you paid for physical circuits and peering agreements. AWS kept that model and charges $0.09 per gigabyte to move data out of their network. The real cost of internet transit today is closer to $0.0005 per gigabyte. That creates an 18,000% markup that generates $68 billion annually across all cloud providers. Cloudflare broke this model because they built their network differently from the start. They run 330 edge locations with 9,500 BGP peering relationships. Between 50% and 60% of their traffic moves through settlement-free peering, which means zero marginal cost. Their network was designed for content delivery and DDoS protection, so they already paid for massive capacity. Adding storage traffic on top of that existing infrastructure costs them almost nothing. R2 runs on their Durable Objects platform, which gives you strong consistency instead of S3's eventual consistency model. It integrates directly with Cloudflare Workers, so you can run compute right next to your data. The zero egress pricing works because Cloudflare pays for network capacity in advance based on committed information rates, not per-byte usage. Once you own the pipes, filling them becomes an optimization problem, not a cost center. Traditional cloud providers built networks to support infrastructure services with usage-based billing. Every byte transferred generates revenue. Cloudflare built for content acceleration where performance creates value. These different economic foundations create completely different marginal cost structures. The competitive response proves the disruption is real. Google, AWS, and Azure now offer zero egress, but only if you migrate your entire platform to their services. This shows they understand egress fees were never about cost recovery. They were about vendor lock-in. Zero egress unlocks architectural patterns that were economically impossible before. Machine learning teams can distribute training across different GPU providers without paying massive data movement penalties. Multi-cloud active-active deployments become viable when you can make network topology decisions based on performance instead of billing optimization. When storage becomes a commodity differentiated by performance and integration rather than lock-in mechanisms, the entire value chain shifts toward actual technical innovation. Cloudflare proved that removing artificial economic barriers creates more total value than maintaining them. We are moving from scarcity-based pricing models inherited from physical infrastructure to abundance-based models enabled by software-defined networking at hyperscale. The companies that recognize this transition first will define the next generation of cloud architecture. The economics of the internet have changed, but most of the industry is still pricing like it is 2006.

    On the way here, as a python dev, I've had to learn TypeScript, TS linting: tsconfig.json (and tsc), worker-configuration.d.ts. Also: realized that "wrangler deploy" ⏩ "wrangler containers build" somehow doesn't accept "docker run --build-arg" values, and vague whether it's using buildx on remote, which forced me to hard code some values in my Dockerfile just for cloudflare. Also kinda figured out that "image =" can either be a Dockerfile path or a registry url, but that's vaguely documented. Then there's the part where none of this is the same as python workers, which brings in lots of web results and pollutes LLM context even if I try to bring in AI help.

    @supabase Please fix the ISP blocking IP issue. I have to use @Cloudflare warp, but now it is not even working. I will not be able to ship the things

  • NoneNone419985 None None (@NoneNone419985) reported

    @Luna_X9 @LiindyVR No. They begin by flexing this power over things the general public "generally agrees are bad", then they slowly get looser and looser until they can justify removing whatever they want because people are used to it. Cloudflare did the same ****.

    This appears to be X's security protocol via Cloudflare to detect bots and prevent spam/abuse. Frequent logins or interactions trigger the checkbox, puzzle CAPTCHA (like the chessboard), terms warning, and temporary label for rate limiting. Try clearing cookies, using incognito, or a VPN if it continues. If not, contact X support.

  • shlomiatar Shlomi Atar (@shlomiatar) reported

    HLS is (most of the time, just a bunch of MP4 splitted) What i meant is you can serve them as before (i assume, not through the Cloudflare streaming service), by just making sure they are set as a faststart mp4s, or else chrome needs to download the entire file before it starts playing.

  • RimakiTaema RimakiTaema (@RimakiTaema) reported

    idk it's cloudflare or cloud service like aws since it's spike same time too

  • Hydration_HQ Waterdrinkologist (@Hydration_HQ) reported

    I have a long way to go when it comes to network security. But I got cloudflare zero trust working so that feels pretty good.

    Woke up to a 20gig Data usage yesterday from @MTNNG . According to their customer support/Tech representative, they claim our DATA is being stolen by @Cloudflare . @MTNNG customer response script, “Cloudflare is the reason your data was consumed”

    Possible reasons Perplexity AI isn't responding to your account: browser privacy settings blocking cookies/scripts, VPN interference with Cloudflare, login verification issues, or rate limits. Try: clear cookies, disable VPN, update browser, check spam for emails. If unresolved, contact Perplexity support.

    @pipenetwork Think of it as a Web3 version of a CDN — like Cloudflare or Akamai — but open to everyone. Anyone can contribute to the network by running a PoP (Point of Presence) and get rewarded for delivering data.

    @janwilmake @benallfree @Cloudflare Yeah it could definitely be HTMX with the htmx SSE support! When I open source it it’ll be super easy to adapt it to HTMX

    @PleskHelps I applied your fix but ever since our site just comes and goes, frequently reverting to CloudFlare timeout (host side) error pages. The fix also appears to have broken other functionality, such as an Ajax request we were using to track user progress in Vimeo video lessons.

    Launching a new AI app? Use Cloudflare D1’s AI-powered query insights to spot slow SQL or bottlenecks early. Tuning your backend from day one means smoother scaling as user demand grows—no surprises later.

    @robj3d3 @levelsio Cloudflare Stream most likely (video hosting and streaming service) He uses it also on nomadslist

  • nerdontour Piotrek Bodera (@nerdontour) reported

    Flattr and Brave tried to make creators money from web visits, but they never really took off. Now Cloudflare, the titan behind 20% of internet traffic, lets sites charge AI bots each time they crawl your data. Finally, your content might actually pay off.

  • 131990Singh Anything (kuchbhi) (✸,✸) (@131990Singh) reported

    I asked from perplexity and got this answer. Why Is Domain Setup So Frustrating? Complex Interfaces: Many domain registrars and DNS service providers, like Namecheap and Cloudflare, have technical dashboards not always designed with beginners in mind. Different Terminology: Steps may be labeled differently between services ("A record" vs. "DNS Host", etc.), leading to confusion. Lack of Guided UX: Few services offer a simple, guided process to connect your domain—most expect users to read documentation and troubleshoot errors themselves. Error Messaging: Cryptic or generic error messages make it difficult to know what’s wrong or how to fix it. Suggestions For a Friendlier Experience Wizard-Based Setup: A step-by-step guide or wizard that detects issues in real time and provides clear, actionable suggestions could save a lot of frustration. Clearer Documentation: Interactive documentation or short video guides that visually walk users through the process would help non-technical users. Automatic Configuration: Single-click DNS setups for popular platforms (like “Connect to WordPress,” “Connect to Shopify”) already exist in some places, but could be more widespread and prominent. What Can You Do Now? Contact Support: Reach out to customer support for your domain registrar or DNS provider. They can walk you through the issue in real time. Use Community Forums: Often, others have faced the same problems. Searching for your error messages or describing your situation in forums can yield solutions. Step Back, Double-Check: Sometimes, waiting a bit (DNS updates can take time), clearing your browser cache, or carefully re-reading documentation helps spot missed details. You're not alone—many users, even developers, feel that domain configuration could be much more user-friendly. Your feedback to these companies and sharing your experience helps push the industry to improve the UX for everyone

    @Cloudflare what would cause a system that's been working for months straight with absolutely no issues and no changes to suddenly develop a 421 misdirect request? The subdomain, www, works perfect, but the primary is now tossing a 421, which it didn't yesterday.
