  @EddCoates Doesn't Cloudflare anti-bot help? They have a setting specifically for scrapers + robots.txt attachment for a legal notice.

  Most Next.js websites are entirely too slow. I just boosted the Cursor Baku community site performance from 77 to 98. It is deployed on @Cloudflare, and the fixes were incredibly simple. If you want lightning-fast load times, steal these 4 tips: • Resize images to their actual display size before committing • Set minimumCacheTTL in next.config to cache image at the edge • Always set sizes on Next.js <Image> or retina fetches 4× the bytes • Wrap R2 reads with caches.default to serve media from the edge Fast load times build trust. Stop losing users over a slow website.

  6. Default DNS Resolution Lag What it does: When your TV tries to load the image thumbnails for an app like Netflix, it uses your Internet Service Provider's default DNS server to find out where those images live on the internet. Think of DNS as the internet's phone book. Why it kills performance: ISP phone books are notoriously slow and incredibly outdated. Often, your TV is not actually lagging at all. The processor is fine, but the TV is frozen waiting for your internet provider to tell it where to download the movie poster graphics. *********** it: Settings → Network → Network Status → IP Settings → DNS Setting → Enter Manually. Change the numbers to 8.8.8.8 (Google) or 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare). You will literally watch your streaming apps load twice as fast.

  If you're on your way to building a billion dollar company that involves a web app, here are some of my notes on architecting the frontend. if you don't do this, it's probably fine but one day you'll hire someone to fix it but truly that person could be doing some other higher value thing if you make some key optimizations on day 1 you don't even have to learn anything you're gonna tell your agents to do it anyways! okay here it goes: - Make your server code generate a openapi spec which then generates all the relevant client side code. Never do this by hand. Typing backend types instead of generating them should be banned - You need to make a decision on how the client talks to the backend. rest/graphql works in which case please just use tanstack query. other libraries will look similar but tanstack query truly is goated. - if you want linear style sync setups or offline mode, think about this HARD and architect it from day 1. Bolting this on later is so tedious. - People like using plain react router but things have gotten a lot better since then. Try their new framework mode or just even use tanstack router. Use route data loaders. - If you store a lot of state in query params, make that a first class citizen and make sure its type safe. use nuqs or tanstack query. - Most apps just need a single state management situation for server state and thats it. If you have other bespoke needs, i have quite like zustand and xstate/store. - If you have a super interactive app where things come in and out of view, theres a lot of frontend state to maintain, music is playing and what not, lock in and learn xstate. Trust me if you wanna keep ur sanity, you need to model ur frontend as a state machine otherwise you're gonna be deep in useEffect hell - React compiler is here my friends, the days of useMemo and useCallback are gone. Update your priors accordingly - Tailwind is easy and fun but makes it really hard to maintain a large app with consistent styling. You need a "agent-first design system/component library" but maybe this is a rant for another day - Don't be afraid to hack your routing library to fit your needs more closely. A lot of apps have "drawers" to show additional info. You should 100% be able to say "here's a route, make it a drawer" and everything should be handled from there. - Managing loading and error states using isPending and isError is madness. Lean into Suspense and ErrorBoundary. - Figuring out a blessed path for websockets and SSE on day 1 i think will pay dividends in the long term if you're building anything AI related. - If you're building a SPA, don't use next.js. it literally makes no sense. Why would you do this. - Definitely deploy on Cloudflare or vercel. There are other services but trust, there have weird missing features. - Assuming you build something people want, the next job is to build the factory so it can efficiently build the thing. Act accordingly.

  7 FREE AI API/TOOL TIERS YOU CAN USE TODAY BEFORE BUYING ANOTHER AI SUBSCRIPTION If you build agents, bots, research tools or small automations, start with this stack. 1. OpenRouter Use it as the router. It exposes free-priced models in the model list, so you can test routing before paying per token. 2. Google AI Studio / Gemini API Good for prototypes, evals, long-context tests, and agent experiments. Check the free tier before you burn paid credits elsewhere. 3. Cloudflare Workers AI Best when you want inference close to your app. The useful part is not just “free AI” — it sits inside the same place you can deploy Workers. 4. GroqCloud Use it when speed matters. Great for bots, voice loops, extraction, and any workflow where slow responses kill the demo. 5. GitHub Models Best for prototyping inside the GitHub flow. If your code, prompts, and tests already live there, this removes friction. 6. Tavily Research/search API for agents. Free plan shows 1,000 API credits/month, useful for browsing agents and research bots. 7. ElevenLabs Voice layer. Free plan shows 10k credits/month, enough to test narration, agents with voice, and demo content. > My rule: never build production on a free tier first. > Use free access to test: - latency - rate limits - output quality - tool calling fit - billing behavior - whether your agent actually needs the premium model Then pay only for the part that survives real usage. Most people skip this and buy 3 subscriptions before they even know which API call matters.

  HERMES AGENT JUST TURNED WHATSAPP INTO A REAL AI WORKER But one tiny setup mistake can leave the entire bot completely silent. What Just Dropped: → Official WhatsApp Business Cloud integration → Run Hermes as a private assistant, team bot, or customer support agent → Text one WhatsApp number and get AI replies directly inside the chat Built Like A Proper App: ✓ Secure webhooks and official Meta support ✓ Voice notes, media, read receipts, and typing indicators ✓ Interactive approval buttons when Hermes needs confirmation The Setup: → Run `hermes whatsapp cloud` → Connect your Meta Business account and WhatsApp number → Use Cloudflare Tunnel to expose your local Hermes gateway securely Three Mistakes To Avoid: ✓ Use the 15–17 digit Phone Number ID, not your real phone number ✓ Replace the 24-hour test token with a permanent system-user token ✓ Subscribe to the `messages` webhook field or the bot will never receive anything For a reliable WhatsApp agent, use the official Cloud API path instead of the unofficial personal-account bridge.

  @prestonjbyrne Not to mention because the major cloud providers have their own international cables between datacenters they'd have to put that DPI filter in front of Cloudflare, Cloudfront, Azure and Google CDNs, YouTube, etc.... it would make the Internet unusably slow.

  @SayantikaSays Try @BSNLCorporate . And I am not joking. It is best if it's available in your area. No BS service. I never heard these lines from BSNL, which I kept hearing from other providers like Jio and Airtel. "We won't give you the router password" "You can't use your own router, even if ours is ******. What do you mean you have a better router and modem? Hou must pay us a subscription for this mesh thing instead" "No, you can't use Google or CloudFlare's DNS, you must use ours. What if it's slow? If you change, how will we snoop on you and inject our advertisements into your browser?" "No, you can't open a port for you. For that, you must buy a static IP from us. Why is a static IP needed to open a port? Who knows. But we won't allow it unless you pay us extra" In the last 3 years, I have only had 2 outages on BSNL, 30-40 minutes max. While on Airtel, I had caught their staff removing my cable from their box and adding a new one for a new connection, and then making me wait till they finally got a new box after a week. They just didn't want to make a new customer wait, so they simply assigned my slot to them. And their customer care and local staff wasn't even ready to accept it, unless I showed the CCTV footage and a video of my cable literally being thrown on the side of their box, not even connected, while they were claiming that there's some backend issue.

  @EddCoates I dealt with some of the same stuff, ended up putting them behind Cloudflare proxies, which helped somewhat. The biggest fix was blocking specific ASNs. Specifically AS132203.

  @Hostinger Yesterday I upgraded my hosting plan. My website was operating normally before the upgrade. Immediately after the upgrade, the site became unavailable with Cloudflare 525 errors. DNS, SSL and server checks have been completed, but human support and ticket escalation are currently unavailable due to a reported support platform issue. Can someone from Hostinger please review this case or advise how customers can obtain technical assistance during the support platform outage? #Hostinger #WebHosting #Support

  Have you accidentally blocked yourself from AI search? OpenAI/Claude's searchbots get blocked more often than any other crawler, usually as a side effect of generic robots.txt templates, not intentional policy. >>The fix: -Open your robots.txt if you have one (go to yourdomain .com/robots.txt) -Remove any rules blocking OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, or GPTBot. Instead add: User-agent: * Allow: / -If you're using Cloudflare, check your bot management settings - set to 'Do not block (allow crawlers)' -If you're on a managed host, check their crawler settings too, many block non-Google bots by default If you're blocking those bots, you don't exist in AI search. Have you done this?

  Everyone please don't fall for false advertising of @Cloudflare @CloudflareDev. They have several billing issues that you can find easily on reddit and their customer support is bad. I moved from GCP to Cloudflare and that was a terrible mistake. Got to move back now!

  5/ You hand over a paid API key, so it's security-reviewed. The key goes only over HTTPS, only in a header, to one stateless @Cloudflare proxy that never stores it. XSS and SSRF hardened. Templates use a strongly-consistent Durable Object. The proxy is fully open-source.

  @ultrasxiv Fair on bandwidth being a real cost, but the 2GB figure is a long way out. Cheapest DO droplet includes 500GB+ outbound, Hetzner 20TB+. At 600-700GB household use you’re a pound or two over on DO, zero on Hetzner. Stays around the base £4-5 for most, not £300. And “un-bannable” was the precise word, not hyperbole. A commercial VPN is bannable because it’s a named brand with known IPs, a company that can be pressured or blocked. That’s the weakness. Self-hosting removes the target entirely. There’s no technical category called “a VPS used as a VPN.” It’s a rented server running standard encryption (WireGuard, IPsec), the same protocols carrying every bank settlement, ATM link and corporate tunnel on earth. To ban it you’d have to block those protocols (killing Visa, every corporate VPN, all remote work) or blacklist the datacentre IP ranges (AWS, Hetzner, OVH) that host the actual internet: payment gateways, banking backends, Stripe, Cloudflare, gov services. You can’t separate “server someone might tunnel through” from “server running the shop you’re buying from.” The second and third-order effects would cripple e-commerce, open banking and logistics, all riding the same cloud backbone. That’s the sovereignty point. You can ban a brand. You can’t ban the capability of renting a server and encrypting your own traffic, not without taking modern commerce down with it.

  @EddCoates Had the same issue on one of our sites receiving millions of hits from scrapers while getting just a few thousands legit visitors per day. The only way is to be extremely aggressive in your Cloudflare setup.

  @yashmp2004 Your cache busting and/or expiration is broken. Cloudflare is down. Your hosting’s network connection is shoddy, or oversaturated. A backup or clone process is hammering the disk. There’s a race condition that wasn’t triggered until now. When in doubt, check replication status.

  There's a case to run a meta network on Cloudflare rails. These childish things by the regime can be bypassed at scale.
