  • Imiel_Visser Imiël Visser (@Imiel_Visser) reported

    @charl_dot_dev Why Cloudflare Workers Can't Send SMTP Emails Cloudflare Workers are serverless functions that run JavaScript (or other languages via WebAssembly) in a sandboxed, edge-based environment designed for high-performance web requests. This environment imposes several restrictions that make direct SMTP email sending impossible or impractical: No Arbitrary TCP Socket Support: SMTP relies on raw TCP connections (typically over ports 25, 465, or 587) to communicate with mail servers. Workers implement browser-like APIs (e.g., Fetch for HTTP/HTTPS, WebSockets), but they do not support arbitrary outbound TCP sockets. There is no standardized browser API for raw TCP, and Cloudflare has not enabled it in Workers to maintain security and isolation. Outbound connections on port 25 are explicitly blocked to prevent spam and abuse. Sandbox and Security Model: Workers operate in a V8 isolate (similar to a browser's JavaScript engine), which limits system-level access for safety. Libraries like Nodemailer (common for SMTP in Node.js) won't work because they require Node.js-specific modules and TCP handling, which aren't available in the Workers runtime. Attempts to use them result in runtime errors. Design Focus on HTTP: Workers excel at HTTP-based tasks but aren't built for long-lived or protocol-specific connections like SMTP. While Cloudflare has added features like Durable Objects for stateful compute, these don't extend to raw TCP for email protocols.

    Hi @webflow, In connection with the recent migration to Cloudflare and DNS update, will Webflow be fully compatible with Cloudflare proxy without any SSL issues? I would like to take advantage of Cloudflare's benefits in the simplest way possible, without hacking the system:)

  • crydits くらら / CRYDITS (@crydits) reported

    Cloudflare is down. Can't get any work done.

  • oshout Oliver Schaudt (@oshout) reported

    It's curious that Amazon AWS, Cloudflare, Godaddy, Google, Visa, Mastercard and many more 'critical' infrastructure providers, as well as service providers like Reddit were previously quick to remove and ban things, implicating their safety and ethics, but less than motivated to do it in slightly different circumstances. Perhaps it's a sign that they've grown and changed, that we've grown as a society. Or perhaps it's bias, bigotry and virtue signaling (because you can't signal virtue when you are in disagreement (or don't disagree) with those in your in-group to whom you want to signal virtue.

    @Cloudflare Please, I am kneeling down, Can your servers come back up!!!!! I have a tight deadline. Please Ejor!!

  • josesaezmerino Jose Saez-Merino (@josesaezmerino) reported

    There must be a football match today because I can see Spain has turned on the Cloudflare blocks and I can barely work on my website :))) **** this country

  • rixon rixon (@rixon) reported

    @Bob_Zhurunkle @Cloudflare oh crap, i thought those were just secondary and tertiary...

  • istanbulerdem T.C Erdem (@istanbulerdem) reported

    @elevenlabsio @Cloudflare What kind of community are you? I paid for a service and haven’t received it. For 10 days I’ve sent 30 emails and tweets, and not a single one has been answered. I paid money and still haven’t received the service.

  • regexlover sampli (@regexlover) reported

    Jeez I thought this cloudflare panel outage was just going to be a quick hiccup !

  • ciscoikz bored°🐨°dev (@ciscoikz) reported

    @Nene_dev26 this solves all that for good and it's free, had the issue awhile ago download "WARP" by cloudflare ( mobile and pc )

  • VineetJ01021642 Vineet Jain (@VineetJ01021642) reported

    Note: hops 8–11 show no ICMP replies (`* * *`) during traceroute — these appear inside your upstream network/peering region before Cloudflare/Google.

  • rajeshgollapudi Rajesh Gollapudi (@rajeshgollapudi) reported

    @Bob_Zhurunkle @Cloudflare Do you notice any slowdown with cloudflare dns setup. I tried using it a couple of times with google fiber router, but I notice random slow downs which seem to go away by removing cloudflare dns

  • astrooed edwin (@astrooed) reported

    anyone else feel cursed when being locked in? > locked in a few days ago building social auth for X, X API down > locked in now, cloudflare dashboard down, can't update DNS ???

  • AmandaPers50168 Amanda Person (@AmandaPers50168) reported

    Never get a cloudflare "check this box" ever, until you say the t-word. How absurd. Be ashamed Elon

  • NioWins READY (@NioWins) reported

    @87xysr @Bob_Zhurunkle @Cloudflare Have you ran into any problems of legitimate sites getting incorrectly filtered?

  • MVP_Builder Harsh (@MVP_Builder) reported

    2. Turn on Safe Mode (unless you want surprise bills) → Use Cloudflare DDoS or Vercel Firewall → Rate-limit public endpoints → Add CAPTCHA to signup & login forms

  • isbkch Elias (@isbkch) reported

    🌍 Open Connect (DIY CDN) Netflix didn’t rent Akamai or Cloudflare. They built their own CDN & shipped custom servers directly into ISP networks. 95%+ of streams never leave your ISP → faster streams, cheaper costs. Own the critical path.

  • LucasRolff Lucas Rolff (@LucasRolff) reported

    @dok2001 @Cloudflare Until you integrate the API and it goes down

  • techjewel Md Shahjahan (Jewel) ⓦ (@techjewel) reported

    @dok2001 @Cloudflare How about offering a transactional email sending service like SES?

  • janwilmake Jan Wilmake (@janwilmake) reported

    cloudflare workers deployments are down! dashboard seems down too.

  • saltyAom SaltyAom (@saltyAom) reported

    What’s annoying is that this niche error has caused at least multiple issues in various libraries Nextjs, Astro Cloudflare Adapter, even Hono Try “cloudflare worker disallowed operation called within global scope” There’s literally 0 documentation even direct link from the error

  • flof_fly Florian (@flof_fly) reported

    @vitest_dev + @Cloudflare miniflare wrangler + DurableObject SQLite multi-tenancy + @DrizzleORM = black magic I've never been happier to realise that testing can be made spinning up REAL sqlite databases locally, and you don't have to mock ****, literally running ur code e2e

  • Sayem314 Sayem (@Sayem314) reported

    @Bob_Zhurunkle @Cloudflare Found this few weeks ago but I couldn’t use this in my router because my WiFi security cameras from Tenda doesn’t work then. I guess they block connections to Chinese servers. Please fix this @Cloudflare

  • arminas_r Arminas Ruzgas 💎 (@arminas_r) reported

    And cloudflare is down again 😳

  • PixelCanuck Brandon (@PixelCanuck) reported

    @Jason_Ewton I feel like the moment a server is online nowadays it's being practically DDOSed by bot traffic unless you're paying google or cloudflare or whatever It sucks ***

  • etrepum Bob Ippolito (@etrepum) reported

    @saltyAom for similar not well documented reasons, if you create a Date in the global scope with cloudflare you're going to have a bad time (they get created at the epoch). the rationale mostly makes sense, it's really just lacking tooling and documentation to prevent madness.

  • vishuis_in Vishu Sharma (@vishuis_in) reported

    @torbox_app Sorry bud, but offlate things have been terrible in India with Torbox. Too much bufffering and very high loading time. India cdn, I believe was down, switched to APAC, HARE & cloudflare etc., nothing seems to work. You guys need to fix it asap, as I've started losing faith.

  • growingvalue2 Attempting Value (@growingvalue2) reported

    @atelicinvest @MylesMarino1 I get that. I wonder how much of the complexity you’re hitting now is not an issue with serverless, but that it’s one running on the edge. ie AWS lambda, G functions have docs for connecting to RDS, CloudSQL (postgres). Or use cloudflare D1 and focus on other things for now

  • Blocira Blocira (@Blocira) reported

    A website is using a security service to protect against online attacks. Your recent action triggered this block. If needed, you can contact the site owner, mentioning what you did and the Cloudflare ID you see on the page.

  • sudipfreelancer Sudip (@sudipfreelancer) reported

    @PaddleHQ My site review stuck for 7 days. First excuse: “no SSL” (Cloudflare gives it automatically). Now, asking if my biz is private, if my legal name is Motomate Tech LLP, and if my platform is automated !!!. Why show ads everywhere when your support is this bad?
