Martin Stepanek 🏳️🌈 (@techseovitals) reported🟣 Underrated #TechSEO Tip GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot all respect robots.txt. Block them and your content never appears in AI answers. Worth flagging that Perplexity's compliance has been disputed – Cloudflare found evidence they used undeclared crawlers to bypass robots.txt. I see site owners block these crawlers without realizing they killed an entire traffic channel. Check your robots.txt right now. Look for blanket `Disallow: /` rules targeting AI user agents. You might be invisible in AI search and not even know it.

Ajay (@AjayCodeWiz) reported@VanillaCache I just bought max plan. Using it via vs code extension. Does the web version covers everything. Mobile web version puts things in container. And running the dev server accessing is so difficult. Cloudflare and ngrok not working. Had to push it to vercel which deploys all the branches including the branch the claude is working on. But still slow like building takes time
-
Francisco T. Barbosa (@Cisco_research) reported@YashasGunderia I believe this is more a Cloudflare thing. Lots of issues with log in/log out

bigdatachads (@bigdatachads) reportedI've been building AI phone agents on @Cloudflare for a while now. v1. a Python container, fighting for every millisecond. v2. no container, the whole call on the edge. that was the real work. now that I have the stack down, I spent last weekend messing around. this is v3, a cartoon you talk to that remembers you and gets heckled by a second AI. all on Cloudflare primitives. three teardowns, first one tomorrow. follow along. @CloudflareDev

Brendan Irvine-Broque (@irvinebroque) reporteddex is holding his Cloudflare product feedback hostage until I share this video watch so that I can learn what bugs we should fix
-
Michael Williamson (@BeachTruck) reported@EddCoates There's always Cloudflare. It kind of sucks having to give up SSL encrypted content to a 3rd party (they re-issue another SSL connection), but sucks less than getting ddos's by these stupid clanker suckbots.
-
AI News 24 (@ainews_24_7) reportedCloudflare $NET rolled out the Cloudflare One stack to give AI agents autonomous control over Zero Trust environments. The new skill library handles planning and deployment without requiring manual migration support.
-
Calvin (@Calvin24seven) reported@EddCoates Honeypots, cloudflare, fingerprinting, not giving so much value away for free would help. Site is great btw
-
Lachlan (@lynx769) reported@EddCoates Are you using Cloudflare in front of it? It should help.
-
Phil Smith (@itsPhil) reported@David_mduw Spin it up, yes. Understand what you built, or what you may have built wrong, not so much. The issues for the non-technical user are going to be things like not understanding when they are trying to build on a server-less platform like Cloudflare, when in fact, they are prompting their way into a site that really needs server side processes. The LLM may or may not point this out to the user, but it will continue trying to build it anyway if the user keeps prompting.
-
Curtis Thornton Jr (@RdclslyGudLookN) reported@EddCoates Of course cloudflare could never stop my automated scrapers, and now they're offering automated browsers that aren't even as good as mine, perhaps reasoning that they know what they can stop and can always choose to not stop themselves.
-
special k | CEO of stressed out era (@specialkdelslay) reported@DispairSoftware @DataDeLaurier No no, I am showing the IPs of the ones hitting our site. They belong to openai (afaik). Cloudflare has helped with some of the bot activity but not all of it. I think they make the assumption that openai, claud, et al are good actors who will honor txt directives, when I can see for sure they are not. What he was telling me is to tunnel connections thru cloudflare and host privately but those things wouldn't mitigate this particular issue
-
Bernardo Gonzalez (@bgonzalesp) reported@CloudflareHelp @Cloudflare how do you expect we can contact support to gain access to my account, if you require to login to send a help request??? It's simple logic... I assume that your really don't care about helping your customers
-
JD (@TooTrill4Thiss) reported@BoringBiz_ Every business doesn't need a custom agent. It needs an enterprise plan and a few capable devs who can map it, and deploy agents. building automation that don't rely on agent compute. like hello??? app scripts, compute engine, cloudflare workers. ******** are people doing?

That Boosted Snep 🔜 Megaplex (@witch_the_snep) reported@joesmith1457 @DoorDash_Help It looks like its cloudflare thats having issue. That who hosts doordash’s website

David Herrmann (@herrmanndigital) reportedMeta ads in 2015: 1. Take a photo of product with iPhone. Open Power Editor, launch ad in under 2 mins. 2. Refresh PE and see 1:1 conversions in under an hour, scale within 3-4 hrs. 3. Spend the rest of the day coming up with fun ideas for new offers, new landing page ideas, new product ideas, new copy ideas. Meta ads in 2026: 1. Hire creative strategist -> Who hire creative agencies / editors -> who build batches of creative. 2. Open ads manager, go through 25-30 prompts of things you have really no clue about, but Meta is insistent it'll lower your CPA by 7.9% based on a study from 2 advertisers in 2022. Click publish after 1 hr of building out 10 new concepts. 3. You're then hit with an error publish with messages like: "you have no shops select," or "you don't have page permissions," or "this creative has expired, please try a new one" you finally are able to hit publish. 4. Finally, you can go on with your day. But wait, client sees that they are getting discounts on the ads you just launched coming in. You open up ads manager and go to ad level to go through multiple areas to figure out why. 5. Ah, Meta has randomly turned the promotions automatically on. No worries, you pause it. On with your day. 6. Someone who knows someone at the company for whose ads you just launched flags to friend that the ads are appearing with a dubstep version of a Beethoven song and seem out of touch for the brand. You're then texted to go pause the music. 7. Open ads manager, navigate to ad level, pause music. You're then hit with a prompt from Meta: "WHY ARE YOU TURNING THIS OFF?!" You hastily respond, "BECAUSE IT SUCKS!" 8. Visibly irritated now over Meta you finally settle in to do the other part of your job, analysis! 9. But wait, there appears to be an outage! Everyone texting, "Is Shopify down?," "Is it Cloudflare?," "Is it AWS?," "No! It's Meta!" Ok, well now you're in fight of flight. Should we wait? Should we pause? Let's wait, yeah let's wait. This is just a minor blip. 10. Meanwhile you're not left refreshing things every 5 min instead of doing analysis and research. Finally, it is night time and you can relax (not)! On this particular day you managed to launch 10 ad sets and do nothing else. Feeling defeated because what once took 2-5 min to do now feels daunting. It feels like you now spend the majority of your day in defense mode. Not because the work has changed or the people, but the process for doing it all has. And that's why you're feeling burnt out media buying friends and creative friends.

PunkXBT (@PunkXBT_) reported@dr00shie that’s not even bad luck at that point, that’s just infra choosing violence specifically on your deploy window lol. cloudflare said “not today” twice in a row. @dr00shie follow back? let’s grow the circle
-
Errrg-XL (@ergonautgg) reported@TapTools clearly has zero plans to open source the services they brought to Cardano. What exactly was their problem keeping this site afloat (dont you use Cloudflare?) after receiving hundreds of thousands in treasury/Catalyst funding?
-
Derek Martin 🇨🇦 (@lo_fye) reported@yashmp2004 Your cache busting and/or expiration is broken. Cloudflare is down. Your hosting’s network connection is shoddy, or oversaturated. A backup or clone process is hammering the disk. There’s a race condition that wasn’t triggered until now. When in doubt, check replication status.
-
Edd Coates | Game UI Database 2.0 (@EddCoates) reported@mishuba Damn, it's almost as if I have a robots.txt *and* cloudflare, and it's still happening. That's WILD, huh? And no, I didn't vibe code my website, i'm not a cretin.

Yi (@imhaoyi) reportedOracle’s 4-core 24GB setup for Hermes was overkill and not worth it. Just migrated everything over to Google Cloud’s free tier today — a basic 2 vCPU, 1GB RAM VM. The standard network tier gives 200GB egress per month (no CDN or Cloudflare needed). More than enough. Only three regions offer free VMs. Picked us-west1 since it’s closest to Asia. e2-micro machine type, standard persistent disk up to 30GB, network tier set to standard for the bandwidth. Allow HTTP/HTTPS in the firewall, disable disk protection, and skip Ops Agent — those two are paid features. Migration was straightforward. Installed Hermes on the new VM, packed up what I needed from the old server, uploaded and extracted it, then ran hermes doctor and hermes setup. That’s it.

Coffee and Gun Oil (@coffee_oil) reported@ShamashAran I was on cloudflare ******* with DNS last night. I hate DNS The **** I run locally works fine, but that's because it's me and a text file.

GangGangHODL 💎🙌 (@GANGGANGHODL1) reportedProblem: generating image variants on Heroku is ruby-vips memory intensive, causing R14 memory quota exceeded Solution: Cloudflare Image Transformations processing Offload Image compute & memory req from Heroku worker to Cloudflare worker Why: deliver sm images to mobile
-
Malte Landwehr (@MalteLandwehr) reported@EddCoates So many solutions: · Cloudflare/CDN · Caching · Free API without authentication I once worked for a website with 90% bot traffic. This issue is manageable.
-
Richard Sever (@cshperspectives) reported@manuelrivascruz working on solutions to this. the problem as I'm sure you can imagine is like so many sites we are being hammered by LLM bots in addition to all the DDOS attacks, so (again like many others) use services like Cloudflare to ensure human readers maintain access

ƒrαeყ (@fraey0) reportedit costs about $21/month to run what could become a multi-million dollar startup • human brain = reasoning (free) • claude = coding ($20/mo) • supabase = backend (free) • vercel = deployment (free) • namecheap = domain ($12/yr) • stripe = payments (2.9%/trx) • github = versioning (free) • resend = email (free) • clerk = auth (free) • cloudflare = DNS (free) • posthog = analytics (free) • sentry = error tracking (free) • upstash = redis (free) • pinecone = vector DB (free) everything sums up to roughly $20 to $25 per month so, the tools are not the barrier anymore. most ideas don’t fail because they’re expensive to build. they fail because they never get built at all. what’s stopping you?

wast3 (@0xWast3) reportedA DEVELOPER BUILT AN ENGINEERING SITE FOR A CORPORATE CLIENT AND CHARGED $3,200 FOR IT the hosting bill was $0, the domain was $0, the SSL was $0 he registered a free domain on DigitalPlat, pointed it at Cloudflare in twenty minutes, and deployed the site on Cloudflare Pages the client saw a live URL with a padlock and never asked what it cost to run here's the full stack he used: DigitalPlat free domain - no card, no renewal creep Cloudflare free plan - DNS, CDN, DDoS protection, SSL auto-issued Cloudflare Pages - connected to GitHub, builds and deploys automatically total infrastructure cost: $0, managed from one dashboard the mistake most developers make is paying three companies on three renewal cycles for every experiment they ship once the stack was locked, every new client demo went live in fifteen minutes $3,200 charged, $0 spent on infrastructure the margin was the entire point register first, deploy second, invoice third

Jorge (@tebayoso) reportedI had my @cloudflare bill spin up from 0 to 500 per day, and their interface was broken for two days, when I noticed I had to pay 900usd. They don't respond to customer support :(

Viktor Lazarov (@viktor_techness) reported@EddCoates Doesn't Cloudflare anti-bot help? They have a setting specifically for scrapers + robots.txt attachment for a legal notice.
