Cloudflare Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
vp.net (@vpnet_official) reportedSo to block Dissent at the network level, a censor has to block Cloudflare itself. That takes down news, banks, shops, software updates and government services for their own population. The math does not work for them. 4/7
-
David J. (@lordofblocks) reported@jpschroeder OpenAI’s enterprise pipeline is still maturing. Cloudflare walks in with hundreds of thousands of paying customers already trusting them with network security.

VC Intern (@the_vc_intern) reportedVC Concept Simplified: Operating Leverage Some companies get more profitable as they get bigger. That sounds obvious, but it is not automatic. Operating leverage is what happens when revenue grows faster than operating costs. A startup may need to spend heavily upfront on product, engineering, infrastructure, brand, or sales. But if those costs do not rise at the same speed as revenue, the business starts to change shape. The same company that looked expensive at $10M revenue can look much cleaner at $100M revenue. This is one reason software businesses became so attractive to venture. The first version of the product is expensive to build. But once the product works, serving the next customer can cost much less than building the product again. Shopify is a useful example. In 2024, Shopify kept growing revenue while expanding free cash flow margin through the year, reaching 22% in Q4. That is the kind of pattern investors like: more scale, more cash generation. Duolingo shows a different version. The company kept growing users and paid subscribers, while Q4 2024 delivered record revenue, record Adjusted EBITDA, and 42% free cash flow margin. The product, brand, and distribution engine started throwing off more economics as usage scaled. Cloudflare is still investing aggressively, but investors watch the same question there too: Can revenue keep growing while operating margins improve over time? That is the founder lens: Growth is good. Growth that makes the business easier to run is better. Operating leverage is the moment scale stops only making the company bigger. It starts making the company stronger.

Saeed Anwar (@saen_dev) reportedCloudflare tunnel for local dev is underrated — it removes the "works on my machine" problem for mobile entirely. Most devs waste days on ngrok workarounds that this solves permanently.

Pranab Priyadarshan (@ppriyadarshan) reported@AmreliaRuhez You can fix it by changing dns servers. Go to networks -> private dns -> manual -> set to cloudflare-dns(dot)com

Kekko D’Amato (@kekkodamato_) reported@TTrimoreau Cloudflare Registrar if your TLD is supported — at-cost pricing (literally no markup), best DNS control, DNSSEC built in, zero upsells. Namecheap otherwise. Free WhoisGuard, clean UI, rarely issues. GoDaddy is a trap — they charge 3x and count on you not noticing at renewal.

Shirley Auspice (@auspiceshirley) reported@themishra4402 I buy all my domains from Cloudflare; they are indeed cheap, but they support a limited number of TLDs.

Spanky McDoob (@59thProfile) reported@ibuildthecloud You’re one of those people that can never be wrong no matter what so I’ll decline. People that get it, get it. which is why when I bounce this idea off cloudflare guys, Anthropic guys, they just get it. They’re like hell yeah. I wish they’d hurry up is all. I’ve already seen it. You’re designing agents for yesterday, goofy. I was trying to politely explain this to you. But then I realized how far you up your own *** making such a thing impossible. Because you’re always right

George (@GeorgePZotos) reported@claudeai @AnthropicAI On macOS, the desktop app throws a Cloudflare error and then closes out whenever I try to use Cowork. It won’t load at all. Works fine on my iPhone, just not Cowork on the Mac. How do I fix this issue?

a (@si__xx31) reportedThis is honestly insane. Cloudflare just released new Radar stats—bots and AI make up 57.5% of HTML requests on their network. Humans? Only 42.5%. Cloudflare handles like 20% of the whole internet. So this is a huge deal. Their CEO says the agentic AI wave blew past th

OpinionEver (@opinionever) reported@MickamiousG I bet it connects to the internet. Stops working if Cloudflare has an outage. Bricks itself on firmware updates. Or if it is working it analyses your passings which you can view in an app, which it also sends back to the government if it detects drugs.

-
Anthony Goonetilleke (@This_AnthonyG) reported@dibiagioandrea @MTSlive It’s a good question technically, Cloudflare Radar measures HTTP HTTPS traffic so API calls would be included but most public websites don’t expose inbound REST endpoints so that portion is relatively small in the grand scheme of things The bulk of this “non-human” traffic is almost certainly LLM driven crawlers training foundation models, retrieval agents fetching live content, and RAG pipelines scraping HTML etc it will only increase There’s also a subtler demand side shift have you noticed when you search on Google today the AI summary answers your question directly from content it already scraped and synthesized the underlying site still gets the bot visit but never the human click or traffic this structural change is as important as the raw numbers. The bot to human ratio isn’t just rising because bots are doing more it’s rising because humans are doing less of the last mile themselves I think

BrenJ (@azzabazazz) reported@therealricoy A few cold-brew powered rambles: - When AI agents become the primary economic agents in a network decentralization becomes an inevitability (absent external threat against their substrate, too incendiary a subject to get into here). Current power economics of centralization benefit from having a human or "slow" entity to hold accountable for misdeeds and the frictions of maintaining verified intention execution. That won't be the case for AI agent swarms. They will be ephemeral, stateless, and operate at collective millions of TPS. That means their behavior will be practically impossible to contain in any 20th century sense of the word. Agents will choose to operate where their freedom to pursue their utility optimization is least impinged. If they can't find that environment either they or market forces will spawn it. Not taking a moral stance on this, nor declaring paperclip factories a fait accompli (thankfully they're not), just following economic logic to its conclusions. - This emergent world of "BlockchAIn" means that buy-in replaces buying as the primary economic modality of 21st century digital capitalism. Instead of building fortresses to protect and rent/sell/lend goods and services capital, AI agents will accelerate into surfers of capital waves - dropping in, carving, exiting (or wiping out). In a sense it marks the expansion of HFT into anywhere tokens/blockchains and agents/swarms converge. - Understandably, all of this will sound hand-wavingly academic and abstract until we painfully relearn why DARPA constructed the decentralized internet in the first place - antifragile redundancy of critical informational infrastructure. If @Cloudflare were to go down for the next month (perhaps somebody shatters their lava lamp wall) we would see, at very least, these two things occur: 1) mass economic losses 2) multiple solutions spring up to fill the informational network gap. Aka centralization --> decentralization. In AI's accelerating economic world, the push-pull-pull-pull tension grows between a) agent swarms (like a Mythos phalanx) maliciously attacking existing infra b) existing infra protecting itself with similar swarms from the inside out c) existing infra incentivizing white hat swarms to penetrate (and perhaps patch) before malicious swarms breach d) swarms spawning alternatives to current infra to outcompete. These force vectors essentially combine like a GAN into the aforementioned capital waves. Notably, in this hyperaccelerated world digital capital itself becomes infra. The simplest thought experiment proof: imagine agents running their own validators and chains to "own" trusted state calibrated to their specific needs. This is a microcosm of the future macro state. - Thus, TL;DR, humans aren't the "units of community" that will come to dominate blockchain (they're already less than half the traffic of the internet after all). The mission now, for the folks in this industry who think primarily in human rather than human capital terms, is to architect alignment between human society and the dawning emergent agentic community of communities (perhaps living on a chain of chains...).

James (@jamescoder12) reportedThe neighbor's final advice was the most actionable. He sat down and wrote out a list of 6 things every internet customer should do: 1. Turn off the public Xfinity hotspot (or your ISP's equivalent Spectrum, Optimum, and Cox all do this too) 2. Manually set your Wi-Fi channel instead of "Auto" 3. Disable QoS / Smart Network "optimization" features 4. Change your DNS to Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) or Google (8.8.8.8) 5. Buy your own modem and router, stop renting from the ISP 6. Test your speed with fast. com or speedtest. net using a non-ISP server, never trust your ISP's own speed test Total cost: $150-300 in equipment, paid back within a year. Total time: One afternoon of setup. Total impact: Often 2-5x improvement in real-world speeds. The customer went from paying $90/month for "fast" internet that crawled to paying $60/month for the same internet that finally worked.

Ansh Kapuriya (@anshkapuriya) reported@sflorimm Maybe Generative Engine Optimisation. I asked ChatGPT some months ago to help me host a SaaS online using Cloudflare and I was getting some errors. GPT was continuously asking me to deploy using verbal and when I listened, I noticed that vercel was user friendly as well as fast

Dimetros Birku (@dimetros) reported@SiteGround Why is this happening in the first place ? Not everyone has time to regularly reach out to support to fix this or that. I am convinced that the problem is not from @Cloudflare side. #webhosting #siteground #cloudflare

sysadafterdark (@sysadafterdark) reportedDid Cloudflare take a 15 minute dump for anyone else? It looks like they're having minor issues tonight, but it spun out a few services in my lab...seems fine now?
-
Augustus (@IndieBeaverHere) reported@vpdn @cesaralvarezll During the last cloudflare outage, RC was down for quite some time. I clearly remember that those who used RC paywalls were in trouble as it didn't work and those who used their own paywalls with RC integration more or less worked. I bet you guys put safeguards for this now.

トラッキー (@RYUSEI2020_0203) reportedThis is honestly insane. Cloudflare just shared new data — bots and AI traffic now make up 57.5% of all HTML requests on their network. Humans? Just 42.5%. They handle about 20% of the whole internet, so this isn't a tiny sample. Their CEO says the agentic AI wave

0xSwagger (@98_swagger) reportedJust tealized the next Zcash upgrade could flip the script on privacy coins. If we migrate to the new pool and everyone migrates, it proves the exploit was never used. But inference only. Still need more performant blockspace or we're dead in the water. Cloudflare rubs over 20% of the internet. Crypto has to be integral to the future stack. 1M TPS day one is minimum. We don't have enough. Wake up, scaling participants.
-
Rishabh Khandelwal (@AIrishabh) reportedThe AI infra story this week isn't another model launch. It's the token bill. Cloudflare adding spend limits to AI Gateway is the operator signal: agents are moving from "can it work?" to "can it run without silently torching budget?" Cost controls are now product safety.

Just Alyx, call me Alyx. (@NH_Alyx) reported@CloudflareHelp @CloudflareHelp We’ve used Cloudflare for years, but our active-service tickets have had no reply since Apr 16. We asked to cancel Argo, were charged again, and our plan was downgraded to Free. We’re trying to pay/reactivate the plan, but payment keeps failing despite ~10 cards.

WikiOasis (@WikiOasis) reportedUpdates - Cloudflare caching has been deployed to stave more load off our backend and improve performance for the majority of users - General bug fixes and improvements - A new AI wiki reviewer has been deployed to help ensure that requests are reviewed within minutes or even seconds, as opposed to the previous hours/days it could take - Small gains on performance

Squatch (@PantsStanky) reported@ponetang @CryptoCulgin @grok I dint care about that bro. How many times has AWS gone down? X? Google Cloud? Cloudflare? AT&T? Verizon? Microsoft Services? Do we questiin thier value to everyday life? Nope. Ehtereum tbh does very simple things. Sui is very broad in its capabilities, much more technically capable. Ethereum does blockchain defi very well, that's about all. The world needs more than defi out of blockchain.
