  I never thought I would be interviewing for a DevRel role again, but here we are. Also: There is something fundamentally broken about how some employers hire. I was (am?) in an interview loop with a company that does large scale Content Delivery (not named CloudFlare) They asked me to do a presentation for their product marketing/devrel role, I sent it back 2 weeks ago. Nothing. Not a "hey thanks for sending this in" not a "this is dog ****, try better" Radio Silence. How come i am expected to drop everything for you and your takehome assignments, but you can't even ping me and acknowledge i sent it?

  @simonnyyberg depends. vercel if its a thin server, railway or render if its something intense like a harness. railway's interface sucks, so I tend to prefer render. sometimes cloudflare (but they force me to use their domain stuff which is annoying) sometimes digital ocean (but its too much work, so not that often) etc

  The problem of running multiple AI agent instances. Yes — it is already creating a version of that problem, and personal “armies” of agents would make it worse. The internet is a shared commons, just like low Earth orbit. Space junk is leftover hardware that stays up there, collides, and eventually risks a cascade (Kessler syndrome) that makes the orbit unusable. The digital version is a mix of congestion, extraction without reciprocity, and pollution that feeds on itself. What’s already happening Bots now generate the majority of web traffic. Cloudflare data showed the crossover in mid-2026: roughly 57% of HTML requests came from automated systems versus 43% from humans. Agentic traffic (bots that actually click, fill forms, and take actions rather than just scrape) grew thousands of percent year-over-year. One human question to an AI assistant can fan out into hundreds or thousands of backend requests. Multi-agent setups multiply that further. Sites that used to serve a few humans now get hammered by crawlers that walk every link, ignore robots.txt more often, and hit the long-tail pages that never get cached. The result: Bandwidth and compute bills spike (Read the Docs cut traffic 75% and saved ~$1,500/month just by blocking AI crawlers). Servers slow down or go offline for actual people. Cultural heritage sites, open-source projects, libraries, and archives have described it as accidental DDoS. Some have blocked entire countries just to stay up. The old bargain (“you index us, we get traffic back”) is broken. Some AI companies crawl thousands of pages for every visitor they send. Websites are responding with an arms race: more aggressive blocking, proof-of-work challenges, rate limits, and new paid-access schemes for crawlers. The slop / debris layer The second part of the junk problem is content pollution. Generative systems produce cheap, homogenized, often cheerful-but-empty pages (“AI slop”). Other bots scrape that slop, new models train on it, and the cycle repeats. Studies already show large fractions of new websites are AI-generated or AI-assisted, writing is getting more semantically similar and artificially positive, and models trained on junk lose reasoning ability (“brain rot”). This is the closest analog to Kessler syndrome: debris (low-quality synthetic pages) makes the information environment noisier, which encourages even more aggressive scraping of the remaining high-quality sources, which drives those sources behind walls or offline. People have already started calling it “Internet Kessler Syndrome.” Personal armies change the scale Right now the heaviest traffic still comes from a relatively small number of big training crawlers and company agents. When millions of individuals each run their own fleet of research, shopping, monitoring, or coding agents, you get: Uncoordinated, overlapping crawls of the same sites. Agents spawning more agents. No shared “debris mitigation” rules. Higher chance that poorly written or abandoned bots just keep hitting servers forever. The open web starts looking less like a public library and more like a crowded orbital shell full of untracked objects. What it probably does not do It does not literally fill hard drives with undeletable files the way space fills with metal fragments. Digital junk can be filtered, cached better, or ignored. New protocols (agent identity, pay-per-crawl, better preference files than robots.txt) can emerge. Some sites will just become APIs with keys. But the tragedy-of-the-commons dynamic is real: the resource (open, crawlable pages served at low cost) gets over-extracted, quality drops, and access gets restricted. The sites that stay fully open and cheap to crawl become the ones that can least afford the traffic. The space-junk comparison is imperfect but useful. Both are cases where cheap individual launches (or cheap individual agents) impose costs on a shared environment that nobody fully owns. The difference is we can still change the rules of the internet faster than we can change orbital mechanics. Whether we do is the actual question.

  @jatin_sethi98 @GetEnergy_ auth tokens persist in a dedicated chrome profile and get reused, just login to what u care about in that profile once and most browser use agents don’t throw bot detection but stricter sites may still show a cloudflare turnstile challenge

  @Cloudflare Wish I could work on these kinds of problems

  @theletterkei glad i could help haha, had that same problem once. i think it happens when someone used the specific ip your router used (before you restarted) in a bot attack or something like that. that ip gets blacklisted on e.g. cloudflare and can‘t access certain sites or functions

  Stripe is slowly buying up all the infinity stones to be a one stop shop - Next is a service like netlify or vercel to easily deploy websites + services to better compete with cloudflare their both headed for same destination.

  JFrog introduced JFrog Traffic Controller, a new product that integrates with Secure Access Service Edge providers such as Zscaler, Cloudflare and Netskope to route software package downloads through JFrog Artifactory, where they are screened for security vulnerabilities, licensing issues and quality before reaching developers. The launch expands JFrog’s software supply-chain security platform into the network layer as malicious packages rise sharply, with company research showing a 451% year-over-year increase to more than 171,000 unique instances. RBC Capital Markets also initiated coverage with an Outperform rating and a $118 price target, citing JFrog’s growing cloud business and its role in software supply-chain security and AI-era development. Q2 revenue rose 29% to $163.8 million, while adjusted EPS of $0.27 beat estimates, prompting the company to raise its full-year revenue outlook to $650 million at the midpoint. $FROG

  @jankeesvw What if VPS provider has outage on VPS too? :D E.g. I use hetzner vps'...what are chances it can happen if that has happened to storage? Btw not sure what volumes you use but I found the best one to be R2 from cloudflare, in terms of quality and cost

  @dhh @eastdakota @Cloudflare It would be incredibly helpful to have ARM64 support.

  I set up an article system for a client, where they want to publish articles they have made internally, but don't want to manage it through their WP (add, edit, format, copy paste not working optimally etc), so I built it with cloudflare workers serving a subfolder on their domain, its own sitemap and feed it with .doc files they are used to handle. All cleaned up and checked by normal pre-AI code and AI doing the logic checks if all is good (no errors in extraction etc.). Using the WP header and footer (rebuilds once every hour and caches on cloudflare), even handling the cookie banner flawlessly, making it feel 100% as part of the existing website. Future article submissions now cost them cents on the dollar with full checks. SEO optimized and all bells and whistles. Old WP sites are kept in place until they are completely replaced with AI builds. @Cloudflare is one option, that I would recommend as it has good AI integration. The web is changing and it is towards PURE CODE.

  @bhoomikacodes You can buy the first-year domain at the cheapest price you find on any platform, and then transfer it to Cloudflare, where the renewal plan is cheaper than on other platforms. This method can help you save money.

  @patrickposner_ Cloudflare fpc is even better then ‘Wordpress static site’ because you get all the benefits of static site architecture but server from CFs edge server network

  Pro-coders forget how big of a gap there is between them and low-coders/no-coders. The avg user trying to accomplish something technical has never heard of these apps (e.g. AWS, Cloudflare, etc.) or concepts (e.g. SDK, CLI, etc.), let alone know where to even begin.
