There was a single story about a casino who was forcefully moved off after they were reportedly rotating domains/IPs to get around geoblocks, they wanted them to BYOIP. I'm not sure if I would draw too much from that.

I would a few things though:

Using a different registrar who is also cheap/reliable like Porkbun is a good idea regardless, to not put your eggs in one basket.
Add backup gmail/email account to your CF Account, ensure you don't lock yourself out, espec if your main one is on a domain that you have in Cloudflare
Take what you read on the internet with a grain of salt, there's thousands at least of customers/people using CF with no issue, you're not going to see posts like "I've used Cloudflare for 5 years and 20 TB/mo, no problem" though lol

Yes, this all makes sense. Thank you for not being defensive — this is a genuine concern and I'm asking in good faith. Like I said I love the platform. I suppose I felt the need to finally ask here since, as I mentioned, I haven't had any luck communicating with Cloudflare at all in the years we've used them

ChaikaOP•6/26/24, 6:09 PM

if all you're using of CF is DNS and Proxy, you can pretty easily plan backups like with Bunny or Cloudfront as long as you control the registrar side

I've used Cloudflare since it was first a free app, hosted hundreds of websites with tons of requests and never had an issue. even now where i run 100T of traffic daily with enterprise i have never had an issue where cloudflare forced me to pay an exhorbant amount of money

valkyrie_pilot•6/26/24, 6:11 PM

workers is a bit harder. Pages is.... not actually that complicated of a product LOL, it could be replaced with nginx and a docker container

ChaikaOP•6/26/24, 6:12 PM

I mean the reality is, that it is pretty hard to get fast responses from CF without Ent or live support, which can only help with somethings. What kinds of issues are you likely to run into though? Global, wider, or reproducable issues can be escalated here by us or on the community forums. Same for generic/setup questions. Billing issues/specific accounts issues do have to go through normal channels and can take a while, and we can't really do much to escalate them, but thankfully most are non-blocking.

ChaikaOP•6/26/24, 6:12 PM

Depends if you use Pages Functions or not, and some frameworks integrate deeply too

valkyrie_pilot•6/26/24, 6:12 PM

i would lump pages functions more closely under workers then pages tbh

valkyrie_pilot•6/26/24, 6:12 PM

but that's definitely something to be aware of

Thanks for your input @Chaika

ChaikaOP•6/26/24, 6:14 PM

if you're using a framework which has integration with pages func, chances are it wouldn't be impossible (or maybe even easy) to switch to other platforms as well if needed

valkyrie_pilot•6/26/24, 6:14 PM

I will never forgive cloudflare for the death of rust on workers /lh

Tthreekat i am getting it on new loads of the dashboard too

ChaikaOP•6/26/24, 6:26 PM

seems like https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/incidents/fgwh8f6rwdy5

Cloudflare Dashboard and Cloudflare API service issues

ChaikaOP•6/26/24, 6:27 PM

I didn't see nothin though, loading or from any of my automatic API stuff, must have just been lucky;p

Unsmart•6/26/24, 6:37 PM

you could just use a snippet to do it also fwiw

ChaikaOP•6/26/24, 6:38 PM

oh I didn't even realize those domains had different extensions, opps

threekat•6/26/24, 6:38 PM

i just got off chat with support and they said that different extensions wouldn't work so i was looking at snippets lol

Bjarn•6/26/24, 6:39 PM

Bjarn•6/26/24, 6:40 PM

Is this a known issue? I saw a Zero Trust incident which was fixed already, but "since" the fix it is throwing these errors

Unsmart•6/26/24, 6:41 PM

Access is working fine for me, so seems its most likely an issue with the IDP or with the config

Bjarn•6/26/24, 6:41 PM

odd

Bjarn•6/26/24, 6:41 PM

it's Google Workspace, but no changes have been made in months

Unsmart•6/26/24, 6:42 PM

No clue I just use normal google but I have no clue how to debug anything ZT. The forums are probably better for ZT than here in the discord though

Bjarn•6/26/24, 6:43 PM

the second I was planning on doing this just now after your message... it works again

Bjarn•6/26/24, 6:43 PM

i have domain for my website how can i public image fromr2 storage, please help me

az•6/27/24, 3:14 AM

you need to create an r2 bucket

az•6/27/24, 3:14 AM

then you can upload your images there

az•6/27/24, 3:14 AM

you can add a custom domain for the bucket too

az•6/27/24, 3:14 AM

to allow people to access it over the internet

az•6/27/24, 3:14 AM

Account > R2 then create a bucket

Hello everyone, how are you?

Friends, could someone help me with a question about contacting the NOC to analyze whether some IP blocks are being filtered?

Thanks

Can I use express web server in a worker to add subdomains that redirect to certain pages?

idk where to bring up... noticed that this is gramatically incorrect though

Workers run in V8 Isolates, same JS Engine as Chrome, not Node.js, can't use Express

Any alternatives?

ChaikaOP•6/27/24, 7:01 PM

You could use Workers themselves to redirect to specific pages based on the subdomain, sure. You could also use Bulk Redirect Rules, Redirect Rules, or Page Rules
