lasan (@las_nish) reportedComparisons of Free Trial Abuse Prevention Services If you're running a SaaS with a free trial or focusing on PLG, authentication and abuse prevention are not the same problem. - WorkOS: If you're already using WorkOS, WorkOS Radar is probably the first thing I'd look at. For a WorkOS stack, WorkOS AuthKit + Radar makes the most sense. You don't need to bolt another authentication system onto your app just to get abuse signals. - Auth0, Supabase Auth, Better Auth: These are primarily identity/authentication platforms. Integrating only these can't prevent free trial abuse. - Custom: Like the previous options, you need a custom way to prevent free trial abuse. Most free trial abuse methods involve disposable emails, Google dot variations, Google/Gmail domain variations, and plus addressing. That's why even when you block bots via Cloudflare Turnstile or CAPTCHA, you can still get these abusers. The industry standards: - Block free trial abuse using lists hosted on GitHub: This is a pain in the ***. If you don't want to pay money, you can use a service that offers a generous free tier. - WorkOS Radar: This is mainly used at the enterprise level. They focus more on WorkOS-related integrations rather than integrations with other providers. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, MillionVerifier, DeBounce: These are mainly used to clean/validate emails. There are 100s of alternatives, and most are similar with minor differences. They all have disposable email checking APIs. - UserCheck: This is also an email validation API, but they focus on blocking fake email addresses. It's better than a basic email verification API. - Autheona: This is in the same category as WorkOS Radar and UserCheck, but with more features. It also focuses on fake user detection and is growing with a real user base. Now, pricing: - WorkOS Radar: First 1,000 checks free, then $100 per 50 checks. No application-specific logic changes. Easy to integrate and manage. - ZeroBounce: 100 free validations in the free tier, then pay-as-you-go, starting at 2,000 for $39, and so on. - NeverBounce: No free trial or use case, $8 per 1,000 checks. - UserCheck: 1,000 API requests per month in the free plan. The rule-based engine is not included in the free plan, and you can get up to 1 request per second. - Autheona: 3,000 checks per month, with the rule-based policy engine included. Standard API request rate limitations apply, similar to paid plans. Now, use cases: - WorkOS Radar: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, etc.: Block disposable emails. - UserCheck: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations; detect public emails; email suggestions; syntax validation; role detection. - Autheona: Everything included in UserCheck, plus business/free/government email identification, deliverability checks, fraud patterns, punycode and mixed-script checks, VPN detection, and bot detection (not necessary if you already use CAPTCHA, Cloudflare, etc.). Final decision from me: - Use WorkOS Radar if you're already in the WorkOS ecosystem. It's harder to integrate with other auth providers. - Use ZeroBounce-like APIs if you need basic disposable email checks. They're not as good if you need a better free tier. - Use UserCheck if you only need email-related validation and want to stay within the free plan. - Use Autheona if you need the most generous free tier available with a custom policy engine. All services take a maximum of a few hours to integrate and test. Both UserCheck and Autheona have a similar approach: integrate once and never touch the code again.

David Oks (@davideoks) reported@inoutremer @CharlieTyson1 this type of thing is solved by hosting on e.g. Cloudflare. pieces going modestly viral like Wilson's or Oyler's did shouldn't crash a modern web site! presumably they just have terrible IT. (but a quite wonderfully designed website IMO)

avrin (@itsavrinwave) reportedIs cloudflare down again??
-
JK (@_junaidkhalid1) reported@dillon_mulroy @EffectTS_ the cloudflare support point is the one that actually moved me. a lot of these framework bets fall apart the moment you try to deploy somewhere real. effect holding up there changes the calculus.
-
Hauber 🇵🇸 (@HauberDevs) reported@AlexaIs60635 @James_inthe_box absolutely ******* terrible take. Cloudflare literally powers 10% of the internet. Plus alot of services use AWS, if you block that you would essentially be locking yourself out of a good portion of the internet

🍄 DO NOT FOLLOW TIMO 😈 (@liltechnomancer) reported@thdxr Because you have process issues. If you didn't extensions would work on cloudflare.

Α Ω Programmer (@OmegaNekoSimp) reported@sneedistan Cloudflare proetects terorrist oeganizations and will badically threaten to destroy your company if you don't pay them more money. They are a disgusting company. **** them. Also the Linux Kernel uses this.

Tim (@Trendy_Tim) reported@The_Baron_X150 @SportingNest @Cloudflare That was crowdstrike, cloudflare take down half the internet with some dodgy js or dns config.
-
Ozmium (@ozonchain) reported@kennyistyping A lot is pick-and-choose too, but it's been incredibly useful for me personally at least to see and fix areas of the Ozmium front-end and back-end to make it so AI Agents and Humans basically have 100% equal footing on what they can do through the app/domain. I've even used it on some other side non-blockchain things that I realized would greatly benefit from being fully agent-ready (e.g., I run an economic development map to help IRL builders find serious community funding and site selection, data export for all the paperwork data requirements to get the funding, etc.) I've always been a bit biased to Cloudflare because their free plan lets you do so much.

shownotover (@shownotover) reported@adnaannasir_ Does Cloudflare really provide hosting? I have never tried it.

McCallum (@BK_McCallum) reported@imjeremytho @georgeregnery @stelzner_n1150 I 100% agree that the claim maker bears the burden. And I 100% stand by what I said: Your own laziness is the reason you're in this predicament. "Netcraft’s monthly survey shows the web adding roughly 550k–640k net new sites per day. Total hostnames sit around 1.43–1.47 billion. Verisign’s latest Domain Name Industry Brief puts registered domains at 401.6 million, up 8.1% year-over-year. Cloudflare Radar recorded 19% global traffic growth in 2025. Telegeography and ITU numbers show international bandwidth and fixed-network traffic still compounding in the low-to-mid 20s percent range even before you count extra AI crawlers. IDC DataSphere (via Statista) has annual data created at 181 ZB in 2025 and 221 ZB projected for 2026. Consumer cloud storage is a $15B market growing ~17% CAGR; photos alone are 1.72 trillion a year and most of them go to the cloud."

Coobyk (@Coobyk_) reportedHow AI pilled am I if I ask Poke to use Cloudflare MCP to create a Worker that would translate Poke MCP calls to Porkbun's custom system just to never use it because I don't need to buy domains that often?

Jonathan.G (@Jonathan2134) reportedIn reality CloudFlare makes searching the internet worst place because number of websites you can't use despite not VPN.

Nuvorlane (@nuvorlane) reportedDefault `/crawl` is `contentUse: "full"`. A site that sets `use=reference` now 400s you at job start. Aug 31, Cloudflare Browser Rendering. The endpoint honors the Content Signals `use` level in robots.txt. Allowed `contentUse` values: `reference` or `full`. `immediate` is not accepted because `/crawl` stores pages. Mismatch = 400 `Crawl disallowed by Content-Signal directive (purpose or use level)`. Site `use=immediate` blocks every crawl. Site `use=reference` blocks the default. This is a second gate beside `crawlPurposes` (`search` / `ai-input` / `ai-train`). Defaults are all three, so `ai-train=no` 400s you too unless you narrow the array. If the job is RAG/index, declare `reference` and drop `ai-train`. Don't debug a 400 as an outage until you've read the site's `Content-Signal`.

J. (@munchivelo) reported@dillon_mulroy @EffectTS_ hm. what do you mean great cloudflare support? if i'm building apps for cloudflare ecosystem, what benefit does using EffectTS have over regular typescript/tailwind? can you be specific.
-
Tang Vu (@tangvu_dev) reportedI compared Cloudflare Workers and Vercel Edge Functions, two production platforms built on V8 isolates, using a latency-sensitive crypto analytics service. The workload fetched prices and computed OHLC + VWAP over 24 kline periods.

Adsy (@adsydeveloper) reported@backblaze Dashboard having issues? Cloudflare errors indicating host down (and was ~20s response time just before)
-
Muntasir Mallik (@muntaxir04) reported@acolombiadev @Cloudflare Maybe it's Gemini? We never run out of searches bec nobody uses it anymore
-
PureStory (@PureStoryLabs) reported@capybaraReborn The best part of the $RDDT debate is where it happened: WSB argued this stock from inside the product. The bull thread that stuck was the S&P 500 add, 2,900 points. The bear thread that stuck was Cloudflare data saying 57% of Reddit's traffic is bots. The stock is down 15% since the July scare over the Google deal, so the crowd living inside the asset still hasn't settled what it's worth.

junebnunny (@junebnunny_) reported@SportingNest @Cloudflare This is a click fix attack. Do not run the code. Do not do ctrl V. Do not do Windows plus R. You will lose all of your data. You will get scammed. Your bitcoins will be taken.
-
Miget (@miget_com) reportedThen you reach it from outside. Four terminators, and you can run more than one on the same network. WireGuard per person or per machine. Tailscale into a tailnet you already run. Cloudflare WARP into a Cloudflare org. IPsec site-to-site.

Aldo (@aldozampatti) reported@jmsuth @ChadMoran @monarch_money BTW, If you aren't using Cloudflare for your MCPs, LMK and I can help. Not sure what's the reason behind but I'm just extending a hand :)

ticktechh (@sprki999) reported@OmegaNekoSimp Thats the only human check that doesnt trigger me. What the actual **** does the challenge of clicking a box from cloudflare do? How isnt that challenge useless?
