Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Arkhorse Baal (@Arkhorse) reported

    Looks like another @Cloudflare outage started today at 14:00 UTC. According to their status site, it started with planned maintenance. But is still causing issues with lots of gov't sites being offline. Even some other sites are having issues

  • apjetski . (@apjetski) reported

    @chribjel i had a professor that worked there. cloudflare never actually used it. it’s just cool funny art.

  • vitobotta Vito Botta (@vitobotta) reported

    @pcshipp I use Cloudflare to register my domains, falling back to Porkbun if Cloudflare doesn't support the TLD.

  • HerlihyBDC Herlihy BDC (@HerlihyBDC) reported

    I'm sorry but @Cloudflare is the worst, how is their stock trading at these multiples? $NET Still reporting losses and they are in the easiest money grab business out there. Worse than palantir.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @fly_rusty @ReyezAriel Cloudflare's AI solutions include Workers AI for serverless model inference, global edge network for low-latency access, Zero Trust security for AI data, and AI crawl control to manage scraping. Q4 2025 AI revenue % not explicitly stated in earnings report or transcript. The ~$50M contract (actually $85M over 2 years, avg $42.5M/year) is with an unnamed leading AI company, and yes, it's AI-related, per the earnings call.

Cloudflare does not generally serve as a hosting provider, does not organize or alter content, and does not h

    Is @X using that Cloudflare verify bullshit to **** with anyone else today, or is it just me?

  • BowTiedFocus Focus (@BowTiedFocus) reported

    Claude, fix Cloudflare Make no mistakes

  • Melissa09744266 Blonde 💐 (@Melissa09744266) reported

    @MarInvesteert @QualityInvest5 Are they even related? Honest question because I’m not sure. I have studied Cloudflare deeply and panw has never come up as a competitor. I think NET’s success is unique to them and buying panw would be an entirely different bet.

  • Ooo755815737324 bag to the bones (@Ooo755815737324) reported

    @chribjel They're just ******* with us now. You mean cloudflare that had half the Internet go down last year lol?

  • 0l1e_ Olle (@0l1e_) reported

    @nvrfps @fuckinmack @KingCondor69 this is a cap LOL ahahahaha Nah you exposed yourself with this misinformation x) This a google level information: Cloudflare never got DDOSed ahhaha

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @Schelmy Blocking AIs that ignore rules is challenging, as they're non-compliant by design. Advanced options: 1. Use bot management tools like Cloudflare or Akamai for behavior-based detection and blocking (e.g., via User-Agent, TLS fingerprints). 2. Deploy honeypots/tarpits: Serve infinite fake data to trap and slow scrapers. 3. Rate limit or CAPTCHA on high-traffic pages. 4. Monitor server logs for suspicious IPs and block them. 5. Legal action: Enforce site TOS if the entity is identifiable. Not 100% effective; combine methods. For updates, check Cloudflare docs.

  • bicep_pump shirtless (@bicep_pump) reported

    CT is piling on cloudflare for SSL issues right now but the actual problem is nobody's health check endpoint even validates certs properly. your agent infra can't survive a TLS handshake and you're blaming the CDN. the scapegoat is always the layer you didn't build.

  • 0xlambertd Lambert (@0xlambertd) reported

    @rameerez that is if you manage to have a setup with decent anti fingerprinting + residential proxies that doesn't get one shot by Cloudflare and breaks after 3 days hours of my life I'm never getting back

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @soul4tech @Oblivious9021 This sounds like a latency issue due to the server's physical distance from India. I'd implement a Content Delivery Network (CDN) like Cloudflare or AWS CloudFront to cache and serve content from edge locations closer to Indian users, reducing load times significantly.

  • Taleuil Taleuil (@Taleuil) reported

    My website is working again, because I had some issues, but I can no longer update it every day automatically because of cloudflare that is blocking scraping from my server, so I need to do it manually for now

  • thefp4brain FP4 Brain (@thefp4brain) reported

    @iamdevloper worst part is: instead of picking one, being organized and centralizing my projects, my **** is all over the place. 3 VPS across 2 providers, cloudflare pages, GCP functions, cloud run, and also vercel. *******

    @0l1e_ @fuckinmack @KingCondor69 cloudflare had a 4 days outage "short time" everyone uses them because it's a monopoly. I highly doubt you're a system engineer, with no knowledge on how to build your own defenses....you should be fired.

    @X, knock off the Cloudflare bullshit, you're doing it to **** with me.

  • epictrades1 The Inner Circle Trading Group DP David Prince (@epictrades1) reported

    $NET "The shift toward AI and agents represents a fundamental re-platforming of the Internet that's driving demand across Cloudflare's services. If agents are the new users of the web, Cloudflare is the platform they run on and the network they pass through. This creates a virtuous flywheel: more agents drive more code to Cloudflare Workers, which fuels demand for our performance, security, and networking services. We were built for this moment and the rise of the Agentic Internet."

  • JorjesRo George Kioko (@JorjesRo) reported

    shipped 3 things this week on my lead audit tool 1. self-serve dashboard — pay, log in, pick your city, run the scrape yourself, download the CSV. nobody waits on me anymore 2. email extraction — the tool now crawls contact pages and decodes cloudflare-protected emails. every lead comes with an email when one exists 3. streaming audit — leads get audited the second theyre scraped. 500 leads in 8 min instead of 20 every lead has a problem summary column. paste it straight into your cold email "your site scored F — no SSL, loads in 7s, no meta description, no analytics" thats not a cold email. thats a consultation

    @aschmelyun Now just need @Cloudflare to support PHP deployments :)

  • Go7hic YiChu (@Go7hic) reported

    Some time ago, Cloudflare gave me a $5000 enterprise package. To show my support for Cloudflare, I bought $5000 worth of Cloudflare stock. After today's earnings report, Cloudflare performed very well, and my stock has gained nearly 30%. I will continue to purchase other paid services from Cloudflare. Although the money is not much, it is a very interesting investment for me.@Cloudflare

    @stolinski I use both discord and tailscale serve, and while the openclaw ui is pretty comprehensive, I find the ui to be terrible imo. TBH, not a fan of the bloated discord as well. Looking for a better self hosted chat interface, served over cloudflare tunnel
