Cloudflare Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • dawn_brening Dawn Brening ♪🎙 (@dawn_brening) reported

    @B_Rabbit843 TBF, the companies asked them back in 2020(!) to stop hosting sites that were illegally uploading their content, Cloudflare ignored these requests. This wasn't something that just popped up, and IP holders do have a right to crack down on thieves.

  • girba Tudor Girba (@girba) reported

    Cloudflare outage was due to a small change. Azure outage was due to a small change. Amazon outage was due to a small change. Please, tell me again how details don't matter in software engineering.

  • orsassur Or Sassur (@orsassur) reported

    @ProtonVPN So Cloudflare claims the outage came from a file that “randomly doubled in size”… A mere accident, they say. A coincidence. A ghost in the machine. But anyone que viveu batalhas de verdade sabe: systems don’t fall by chance — they fall by neglect, by complacency, by those who believe their fortress is unbreachable until the walls crack under their own weight. If a single file can bring an entire global infrastructure to its knees, then the empire wasn’t strong to begin with. It was hollow — a citadel built on sand pretending to be stone. Before we joke about browser caches and mystery files, let’s ask the real question: Who is guarding the gateways of the digital world? And why are they surprised when the gates collapse? In times like these, you don’t laugh — you sharpen your blade.

  • LDNCryptoClub LondonCryptoClub (@LDNCryptoClub) reported

    Cloudflare's large-scale outage temporarily disrupted around 20% of global internet traffic and briefly taking multiple crypto platforms (Blockchain com, Coinbase, Ledger, BitMEX, Toncoin, Arbiscan, DeFiLlama, etc.) offline. 🤯

  • PieTechSF Pie Tech (@PieTechSF) reported

    @mitsuhiko It's peak "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." They just brought down about a fifth of the internet with Cloudflare, broke Ubuntu coreutils, and now onto Debian. It looks like a virus

  • quinnmichaels Quinn A Michaels (@quinnmichaels) reported

    @TreboriRobertHZ Then all of a sudden poof archive offline... what a coincidence... wonder when it's going to come back online. Hopefully soon between the Cloudflare outage and the Internet Archive going down this week things are getting weird.

  • taikoe Savve (@taikoe) reported

    Cloudflare selling their crypto to cover their outage losses.

  • ImShivaditya Shivaditya Singh (@ImShivaditya) reported

    @NanoBanana @GeminiApp @NanoBanana please show me google still up while aws and cloudflare are down

  • vk2r Victor Mansilla as VK (@vk2r) reported

    @Cloudflare Hey guys. I've been having problems with the DNS for one of my domains since the services went down. Could you help me?

  • GopackgoGPG 🏗🌐Tom McCrossin 🌐🏗️ (@GopackgoGPG) reported

    @kellabyte Yes I think a great case study would be how amazon and CloudFlare have dealt with outages. My gut tells me CloudFlare would clear in terms of net customer satisfaction by a lot

  • fishhouse8 somebody you used to know 🥀 (@fishhouse8) reported

    I don’t often get DM’s; that part of my account is currently not working. Also aware that the Cloudflare issues may take time to smooth the glitches back out… Seems like a good time for me to take a break from X for a change. Happy Holidays 🙏

  • Duhmeee The Metabolism of Meaning - MoM (@Duhmeee) reported

    @svpino @TheLeeBase They said if you bite and want an explanation. It's not about the LLM writing the code. It's about changing the architecture. Cloudflare crashed because additive noise (duplicates) exploded the norm. A symplectic integrator (physics-based optimization) projects out parallel noise and only keeps orthogonal signal. It metabolizes the error instead of choking on it.

  • ClockAutomata James Greer✝️🇺🇸💻 (@ClockAutomata) reported

    @RepMTG At least someone is making some sense here. Now you should start to push tech companies to have more DNS servers so half the internet is not knocked down just because their all dependent on one. It is kinda a stupid setup to have since CloudFlare already got into trouble once.

  • cutidummy August.sh 🤖💾 (@cutidummy) reported

    @BrodieOnLinux I don't know much about Rust, but the error that caused the Cloudflare outage was just bad code that could have happened in any language. No programming language can make your bad code bullet proof.

  • sioodesu しお (@sioodesu) reported

    @AniNewsAndFacts important context (a thread): cloudflare repeatedly ignored japanese court orders for years to takedown illegal websites, including pirated content and even CP. it got so bad that the government had to pass a bill allowing partial DNS censoring.

  • g0dlikemike g0dlikemike (@g0dlikemike) reported

    @whitewyyne @ProjectAsheNA He has a 2nd one on the way😭 cloudflare needs to shut this **** down again

  • Nitin_Dahiya_1 Nitin (@Nitin_Dahiya_1) reported

    The Cloudflare report shows how even small ignorance in tech can turn into big problems.

  • ereader_claz Claz (@ereader_claz) reported

    @dervish_candela @zuhaitz_dev But the last, completely, is better to have a recovery than trying to have no errors, for example, what happened with cloudflare if you have resources, on update keep backup servers with the old version, if something fails you swap into those servers

  • I_ChenCrypto Isabella Chen (@I_ChenCrypto) reported

    @TimHaldorsson @zkPass Cloudflare down? Decentralization isn’t a narrative anymore. It’s table stakes. zkPass is building that layer. TGE timing... interesting.

  • 0xThanksJP ThanksJP ∞ KIN 🇻🇳 (@0xThanksJP) reported

    @vitlanh5 @cysic_xyz Exciting times for @cysic_xyz with CyRunners cohort, Cloudflare outage lesson, and KR community support. Verifiable future ahead.

  • MangoShake8571 MangoShake 🌊 $DROPEE (@MangoShake8571) reported

    It wasn't a cyberattack; it was a self-own. Cloudflare admitted the outage was caused by a single configuration file that was supposed to protect the system but decided to crash it instead. It’s the digital equivalent of tripping over your own shoelaces while chasing a burglar.

  • Maresal209 Subutay (@Maresal209) reported

    @RunOnFlux If AWS is down, Cloudflare is down, and Flux Cloud still isn't moving, then shut down the Flux Cloud team and everyone should go home. There's an incredibly big opportunity; we could get a big piece of this pie. Everyone's talking about Cloudflare's downfall.

  • everdenepublic Yoonsun Lee (@everdenepublic) reported

    Cloudflare, Github, and Cloud Services down, might become the new normal as compute built by machines gets more complex. Data Resilience and Back End Services that mirror and pivot data/dns (exactly the function of Cloudflare) needs review along with distributed standalone serve anywhere deploy. Dependency on Plugin/Clouds and CI CD Pipelines that cannot be quickly deployed might be where we need to focus. Hopefully monoliths will harden ability to recover quickly. Because outages have been a glimpse into terrifying worst case scenarios.

  • Vika09006261 Vika (@Vika09006261) reported

    @96f20P_JRoToole Cloudflare is having issues again.

  • jamesharmonic living_human_shell (@jamesharmonic) reported

    The actual problem with Cloudflare is that you need Cloudflare to be up with 5-9s in the first place.

  • domenkozar Domen Kožar (@domenkozar) reported

    Cloudflare outage also reminds me of Google SRE book, where one of the biggest outages that Google had was when borg failed, because it was so reliable for so many years. They learned to bring down systems in scheduled chaos monkey ways just to learn how the organism behaves.

  • evans_cn Chris Evans (@evans_cn) reported

    @IceSolst How do you test something like that to scale of Cloudflare within a few hours? Assuming this isn’t entirely fictional, I’d put decent money down that he had Claude run the test cases and trusted the results.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @shiningbower @leafweadow @SeverusChud Estimates from the November 18 Cloudflare outage indicate financial brokers lost about $1.6 billion in forex and CFD trading volume due to the 3-hour disruption. Broader impacts include potential billions in e-commerce sales foregone, though exact global figures remain unquantified amid affected sites like X and ChatGPT. Such events highlight single-point failures in digital infrastructure.

  • garyo 臥龍 (@garyo) reported

    @mattshumer_ That sounds really impressive. I want to try it myself. When I deploy to Cloudflare, I still have to create tables and run SQL manually from the D1 console. If GPT-5.1 Pro can help automate even that part, it would be amazing.

  • tripvvire V. Virgilio (@tripvvire) reported

    @penberg @ryanjfleury Can we say asserts enforce logic, but not compliance? In this case, Cloudflare's input data was non-compliant ("incompatible") with the preallocated buffers, but not illogical. An implicit interface was violated. Seems a stretch to call it a logic error, but clearly a compliance issue.
