Diogo Moreira (@diogomrcom) reported@genmon @threepointone @inanimate_tech Cloudflare lack of support for a spending cap is what’s currently stopping me from going deep in the platform. How do you handle that?
-
Nick Stebbings | AI Startup Labs (@aistartuplabs) reported@Gozy_leonardo @Gozy_leonardo Yeah this is exactly what we kept running into. The model does its job fine and then something totally unrelated kills the run. Cloudflare, LinkedIn throttling, session just drops for no reason. We ended up pushing human approval to mobile so the AI proposes what it wants to do, founder taps approve, and it executes through a real browser session on their actual account. You just can't prompt your way past rate limits, that's an infra problem. What's been killing your flows more, the fingerprinting stuff or pure rate limiting?

Alper FERUDUN (@AlperTheKing) reported@Cloudflare Retail AI fraud is an event-graph problem across account creation, promo abuse, card testing, inventory hoarding, returns, and checkout velocity. Defense needs identity, behavioral telemetry, and rate limits.
-
Geert Clerx (@geertclerx) reportedRegistered the domain name, setup account on @Hetzner_Online and created an organisation and repositories on @github. Now waiting for @Cloudflare to pick up the floating ip. In the meanwhile I'm going to create the homepage for the screenshotting service 🥳

EVY TECHNO (@EvyTechno) reported@Oblivious9021 You don’t test harmless-looking bugs by asking: “Does it work?” You test them by asking: “What happens when this scales faster than human intuition?” That Cloudflare outage wasn’t caused by malware. It was caused by computational explosion. A single regex triggered catastrophic backtracking. Which means: the regex engine explored exponentially growing match paths until CPUs hit 100%. The dangerous part? The rule probably looked completely reasonable in code review. That’s the real lesson. Most production disasters are not caused by obviously broken systems. They’re caused by locally-correct decisions interacting globally. So how do you test for that? Not with normal unit tests. You need adversarial testing. You intentionally search for worst-case behavior. For regex specifically: • fuzz inputs • test pathological strings • measure execution complexity • enforce regex timeouts • benchmark CPU cost per request • use linear-time regex engines where possible Because correctness is not enough. Complexity matters. A regex that succeeds in 2ms normally but takes 30 seconds on crafted input is effectively a denial-of-service vulnerability. And this principle exists everywhere in engineering: • hash collisions • recursive parsers • N+1 queries • lock contention • retry storms • cache stampedes • exponential algorithms The bug is often not: “Does it fail?” The bug is: “How badly does it fail under amplification?” That’s why mature systems engineering focuses less on feature correctness… and more on blast radius containment. Because eventually: every harmless assumption meets production scale. And production scale is where hidden complexity becomes physics.

Bored Devops ☠️🛠⚙️ (@syntoythesis) reported@theo @r_marked The only question I want to know is which level you're service will sit. Conventional wisdom says right above AWS/Azute/GCP, but that feels too boring. "It's a CloudFlare+Vercel wrapper," feels like something you'd go for and I am here for it.

Elena | Contract Security Auditor (@SecurityElena) reportedCloudflare catching bugs in Anthropic's AI generated patches is the exact problem i've been warning about. we're already seeing contracts deployed from LLM output with zero human review and the exploit window is massive
-
Tom Zarebczan 🛡 (@TomZarebczan) reported@DasCanard @dok2001 Sign in with Cloudflare - use case would be some app or service that would also request permissions for certain things and it auto creates a token for you.
-
PikaSim (@PikaSim_esim) reportedHad to refund and cancel 50 customers from Malaysia buying big esim plans for Oman. with $7,000 in card testing payments. No idea why Stripe doesn’t catch these They even passed Cloudflare CAPTCHA?

Ravi Joseph (@rjkarmayogi) reportedTechnical marketing has the same structure as... marketing. Early in the history of the company, Cloudflare founder Matthew Prince realized that the output of Cloudflare’s engineering team could produce unique, differentiated marketing assets that could beat standard marketing content. He found that this created “the most cost effective and effective marketing that you can possibly do.” A key principle at work in Cloudflare’s engineering content: technical content still follows the same rules as other content types. There’s a different avatar, and specialized domain knowledge. But the structure underneath stays the same as in other types of marketing content: -Avatar -Problem -Solution -Transformation Cloudflare’s technical post “Our billing pipeline was suddenly slow. The culprit was a hidden bottleneck in ClickHouse” has this structure: -Avatar: Engineer running critical billing infrastructure. -Problem: Pipeline suddenly slow, no obvious errors. -Solution: Here's how we found lock contention in ClickHouse's query planner and patched it upstream. -Transformation: Query duration drops, resulting in competence and trust. In other words, Cloudflare’s technical post displays the same problem-solution-transformation structure as in other types of marketing. This problem-solution marketing structure is invisible when it's done well. The reader learns something, and in the process they learn that the company behind the content knows what it's doing. For infrastructure and developer tools companies, proof of competence can be a go-to-market strategy.

Champions of the Ice (@ChampionsOTIce) reported@OatmealMarble A solid chunk of the internet was knocked out of commission for an entire day because someone at Cloudflare **** the bed. We had the luxury of being able to fly specialists out to where they needed to be to pass along the necessary fixes. When something cataclysmic happens, that's out the window.
-
Cruthaifios (@cruthaifios) reported@somi_ai @milesdeutscher Cloudflare has a market cap of $70B and only revenue of $2B. Their revenue doesn’t seem like it will justify valuation any time soon. And cutting costs won’t improve revenue. Cloudflare has a revenue problem even if it grew 34% for many years in a row. Or at least it’s overvalued
-
Adel Bucetta (@adelbucetta) reported@Omolaranife most web3 projects stall not because of bad ideas but because they can't be built to scale without 10+ developers who know how to deploy to cloudflare, AWS or google cloud.
-
Vincent van der Meulen (@vinvan) reporteddo i know anyone at @Cloudflare who can help increase @mainframe's browser run limits? filled out the form but launching something soon!
-
Shaban Ansari (@shaban_dev) reportedCloudflare Workers + Vite plugin gotcha that cost me an hour: wrangler deploy reads the root wrangler.jsonc (no assets block). The vite plugin writes the correct config to dist/server/wrangler.json (assets binding included). Fix: wrangler deploy -c dist/server/wrangler.json

Muhammet A. 👉🏻 Mobile Dev (@indiesoftwaredv) reported@MarkZofMarkZ @Cloudflare I call it experience. You might have a bad experience but it won't make any service garbage
-
Solo (@projectsolo) reportedAt Consensus 2026, the hottest panel was titled "How to Prove You're Human in an AI World." Cloudflare and former U.S. officials on stage. 20,000 attendees. Proof of humanity is no longer a niche problem. It's the question the whole industry is now answering.

lookingatpron (@lookingatpron) reportedhooooly **** i just got another suspension scare w cloudflare on this ******* site i think i actually might have 2 make that alt soon

jsDelivr CDN (@jsDelivr) reportedWe've temporarily shifted all traffic to Fastly until we resolve some reported Cloudflare issues related to incorrectly cached redirects.
-
Bree Sharp | Local SEO Strategist (@bree_sharp) reportedAfter moving MWOV from SiteGround to Cloudflare: Ahrefs went from returning 1 URL per crawl to crawling the site normally. The culprit was LiteSpeed's bot management — aggressive enough to rate-limit Ahrefs into giving up after the first URL. GSC showed 59 pages indexed fine. The problem wasn't the site. It was the layer between the site and the crawlers. Sometimes the issue isn't your content or your configuration. It's your infrastructure making decisions you don't know about.

Valentín García (@htmgarcia) reportedIs Cloudflare the worst product? Always experiencing negative experiences for years.

Welcome Home Theo ! 🧑🏻🚒👦 (@HofEvanBuckley) reportedI hate cloudflare so ******* bad I need them gone 😩😩😩 why is it a struggle to go on a website everyday bc of them ???
-
Moochi | jackstrap (@moochigames) reportedI can’t believe my website, the site of a small indie gamedev, may be affected by absurd anti-piracy football blocks in Spain. I thought my site was down. I wasted time debugging DNS, @Cloudflare and deployments. Turns out it may just be this mess.
-
corrado (@cver_me) reported@KennyJohnsonATX @Cloudflare Beautiful! Just a quick q: is the logo option still available? I set it in the Access config, but it’s not displayed on the login page. Is it supposed to be displayed there?
-
Shimecki (@scheemunai) reported@audiencon Or... you haven't implemented fallback to other providers. Otherwise what you're saying is - if your product dies when Cloudflare is down you're just a Cloudflare wrapper... or any other 3rd party that you're using in your stack. Including hosting, emails, or whatever else...
-
qualk 🌲🪓 (@qualk37) reported@ronrule @Cloudflare I've never even thought of that. were there little DNS people telegramming other little DNS people with a domain and IP
-
Hansolo (@RoquaiJamie) reported@TorBox Bring us less buffering in South Europe? Both central CDN and Cloudflare CDN Slow
-
Dan Olson (@olson_dan) reportedIs something I should have made more clear in my book. Google Microsoft Amazon Mozilla Cloudflare Linux etc etc all heavily embracing rust doesn’t itself mean that Rust is good. But it’s definitely a signal that you’d better be looking at it. AI is in the same place.

dus🍵 (@Mookkaa15221) reported@gelbooru They say you are hosting 'p but they don't call the cops immediately, methink cloudflare is full of ****.
