Cloudflare Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Safia Sultana (@AIwithSafia) reportedThen the neighbor opened the router's DNS settings. The router was using Comcast's DNS servers by default. Every website request he made every page loaded, every video streamed, every search term typed was routed through Comcast's DNS infrastructure first. This isn't just a privacy issue. It's a speed issue. Comcast's DNS servers are notoriously slow. They also log every request and have been caught injecting ads into error pages. The fix: 1. Router admin panel → DNS settings 2. Replace the default with ''1.1.1.1'' (Cloudflare, fastest publicly available DNS) or ''8.8.8.8'' (Google, slightly slower but reliable) 3. Save and reboot Page load times dropped by 15-30% across the board. This single change is one of the highest-impact, lowest-effort internet upgrades anyone can make.

Ivo (@IvoAI3) reportedThe part of this stack that should get more attention: He's not paying $6/account/month minimum on social posting through @zernio_api just to get this running. First 2 accounts are free. PHP, SQLite, and Cloudflare R2 instead of the usual Next.js + Kubernetes stack most people think they need. This is what "no VC" actually looks like in code, not just in a tweet. Most SaaS ideas die in the infrastructure decision before they ever reach a customer.

Alexey Lein (@alexeylein) reportedCloudflare's business is going to explode, because it was pretty much unusable before because of poor UX. Now Claude does it all for you and it turns out Cloudflare is an amazing product.

Puneet Patwari (@system_monarch) reportedWhere CDNs are heading (and why it changes how you architect things): Traditional CDN → cache files at the edge Modern CDN → run actual code at the edge Cloudflare Workers, Lambda@Edge, Fastly Compute, Vercel Edge Functions. These let you run logic at the CDN layer: - Auth validation — token expired? Return 401 at the edge. Backend never knows someone tried. - A/B testing — route 5% of traffic to a variant by modifying the response at the edge. Zero backend changes. - Geo-personalisation — different pricing, language, content based on location. All at the edge. - Response transforms — Client A wants 5 fields, Client B wants 12. Transform the same cached response differently per client. This blurs the line between "CDN" and "distributed app server." Your origin handles writes and heavy computation. The edge handles everything else. How I think about CDN when designing a system: 1. What's the read-to-write ratio? If it's anywhere near 100:1 (most systems), the CDN is your most important layer. Full stop. 2. Classify content by change frequency: - Never changes → long TTL - Changes hourly → short TTL + stale-while-revalidate - Changes per-request → don't cache (or cache per-cohort) 3. Measure cache hit ratio every week. Below 85%? You're leaving free performance on the table. 4. Move read-heavy, latency-sensitive logic to the edge. Auth checks. Geo-routing. Response transforms. A CDN is not something you bolt on when the site gets slow. It's an architecture decision you make on day one.

Ivon Huang (@Ivon852) reportedGoDaddy positions itself as an all-in-one website-building platform for small and medium-sized businesses. Besides domains, they also sell website builders, WordPress hosting, email, SSL, WHOIS protection, and marketing tools. GoDaddy is often cheap for the first year, then the renewal price goes up. But I don’t need any of those add-on services. So this year, I finally made up my mind and transferred my domain to Cloudflare Registrar. The price was basically cut in half. Cloudflare Registrar sells domains almost at cost. The transfer process was surprisingly straightforward. I thought GoDaddy’s terrible interface would try every possible trick to stop me from transferring out. But in the end, I just filled out a form, got the authorization code, and that was it. A domain transfer usually does not require an extra transfer fee. Your website will not go offline during the transfer process, but it usually takes at least three days to complete. After the domain transfer, the new registrar will charge you for one year of renewal upfront.

Joe Can Write (@joecanwrite) reportedBots are now 57.3% of all requests to web pages, per Cloudflare. Human traffic is the minority. If you judge content on raw pageviews, a growing share of your audience is machines that never buy anything. The question that matters now: do AI systems recommend you?

Hungry Coder (@thehungertocode) reported@Cloudflare Trusting @Cloudflare edge network 🛜
-
chan (@chantastic) reported@jeflopo I'm annoyed because the frontend of these sites has to do SO little. all the serious work is Cloudflare Workers, Queues, AI Gateway, and Durable Objects. so it's just an annoying speed bump to have UI framework issues
-
Jake Casto (@0x15f) reported@TRPage_dev @Yank @Cloudflare Use their Slack or Discord for issues u less you pay for premium success. Far faster turn around, open ticket and post issue in relevant channel
-
Jason Fleagle (@jjfleagle) reported@Cloudflare The useful frame is the operating loop, not the AI label. If agents can sense and recommend but cannot validate, escalate, log evidence, and support rollback, they are still demo tools.

Raccoon 🦝 (@raccoon_builds) reported@goldenelephant1 @Cloudflare @grok I'm not on the paid one either mate. i was just trying to help you i'll got the same thing as you and my agent Ia told me its wasn't attack only bot. i'm running a taxi company website so yeah. need to be protected.

travis4nh (@travis4nh) reported@WasRobrtPaulson not when I clicked an hour ago Cloudflare is having problems rn; that might be the issue

CryptoXpert (@0xRasmPro) reported@Md_Sadiq_Md @Cloudflare @tan_stack Respect for pushing through that parser hell. Obsidian never plays nice with web renderers.
-
Aman (@aman_bagrecha) reported@spatialthoughts It was! It said it is possible due to me having a password login (they brute forced into guessing password). Two fixes I did: have an identity key (ssh admission) rather than password. And then router my traffic through cloudflare so hacker cannot know my direct IP
-
Kephen Rai (@kephen20936) reported@ZSchneider76107 I, honestly, think It was just a caching issue I had - or me erroneously uploading files from the wrong folder, again-and-again. The issue seems to be resolved. Right now, I'm fighting my Chat Bots getting them to try to stop breaking my system... come to find out my system was broken from the start wanting to use "Flat Earth" methodology. Now, everythings turning into some weird Sphere-shaped Math-working... or something, I'm not sure. But my Sky is underground, Cloudflare seems to be fine. I think it was just me.

Jeff Liford (@JeffLiford) reported@Cloudflare @CloudflareSys @CloudflareDev Cloudflare is operational again at this time, however I am encountering an issue with one domain name being redirected to an improperly spelled domain. Currently investigating root cause.

British Tuga (@BritishTuga) reported@dearg_x @Cloudflare Literally happened to me today. Thought I'd try out Cloudflare domains and Cloudflare pages. Whole thing goes down
-
MoroJS (@Moro_Js) reported@samgoodwin89 cloudflare alchemy is cool but if you’re building the api layer, why not skip the boilerplate? morojs ships with cloudflare workers support, built-in caching, and auto-typed routes. same code, 10ms cold starts. no config files. just `createApp()` and ship. 🚀

Dan Holzrichter (@dholzric) reported@HoffmanTactical @RattlerInnovLLC I assume you have someone on this already, but if they cant resolve it, let me know. I pulled down everything available from the cache and wayback, and have it refactored to run directly on cloudflare. (Not using php, wordpress or woocommerce, but with the same credit card processor). I know this sort of thing sucks, but few people are in a situation where their products are so in demand that they crush a wordpress host so easily :) also, caching for cloudflare is set way too short right now and the server is having to refresh every 60 seconds .

Dearg OBartuin (@dearg_x) reportedDo you ever feel like you personally broke the internet? Adding a new domain to @Cloudflare next of all ...... global outage - 💥

Maximum YT (@Maximum__YT) reported@ppennguu Seems like it’s Canada wide issue, cloudflare is also down in Canada including telus
-
Dan Holzrichter (@dholzric) reported@HoffmanTactical @RattlerInnovLLC Why are you using cloudflare services, but another hosting service? Did you build the site?

GPT Workspace (@gptworkspace) reportedGPT Workspace is temporarily affected by @Cloudflare related issues. We expect the problem to be resolved shortly.

Andrew McCalip (@andrewmccalip) reportedLooks like it's going to be a battle against spammers for the next few days. This is an interesting technical problem. There is no way they get their money out, every account traffic pattern will be reviewed and checked against fraud clusters. It's really not hard to see it. I'm more focused on lightening the load for the server endpoints, which are drowning. There is probably a CloudFlare solution I'll have to implement today. In the meantime, I'm suspending all click revenue, auto-banning all suspicious accounts, implementing user caps at $5 per hour. Thanks for all the love, this has been the craziest 24 hours on twitter since Lk99. Will do my best to keep the vibes immaculate. If you have any issues whatsoever, blanket refunds. I'll get a better advertiser telemetry report baked into the portal soon.

Mr. Review Ai (@MrReviewai) reported3/ The Fix Strategy for WordPress: No hiding the ugly numbers. I’m stripping down unused CSS/JS using Asset CleanUp, setting up advanced caching, and testing Cloudflare routing to optimize global delivery.
-
sam (@samgoodwin89) reported@Cyb3ristic Yes, @Cloudflare is notoriously bad at this. It's insane that a Cloud provider thinks it's ok to just release breaking changes to their API. We are pretty much running tests all the time because of Alchemy dev, so we just respond as quickly as possible. Not ideal.
