Gwith a proxy, it has to go through a server as well (even if it's virtual, let's face it). so if activating the orange cloud doesn't change anything (to use your words), then it's a lie.
GBy saying that i'm curious, I would like to know a bit more but just "cost you anything". i'm pretty sure something more is happening when this orange cloud is enabled. and i'm curious of what is happening 
HI didn't say it wouldn't change anything, just that it should not provide you with any negatives
HBasically, I would go orange-clouded because it can't really hurt
GWell good for you but that's not my way of working with computers, i'm very carefull with "cost anything" and "can't really hurt". I wanna know what is happening exactly
GI don't know how else to tell you, I'm looking for technical and deep details of what's going on. Do you know if such data/papers exists at cloudflare?
HBasically, because Pages is a Cloudflare product, it is already proxied by Cloudflare. When you have the DNS record orange-clouded, what it is actually doing is giving you control over the proxy
HApplying rules, using better datacenters(if you pay), enabling the firewall
Hetc.
GThat's what I call cloudflare-ception (reference to the movie inception). for me then it's like having something useless (with orange-cloud enabled). because already in the cached + anycast CDN
HThink of it this way. You order a bottle of water. I give you the bottle of water, and a cup
HYou would be perfectly fine with just the bottle of water, but if you want the cup, it is there
Gcup is orange-cloud ?
HYes, in this analogy
GThen, it takes longer to pour the water into the glass before drinking it, than to drink directly from the bottle.
GSo, there a "cost"
Gthank you for your replies and sorry for my condescension. Will do some benchmarks
WUnproxied is faster (of course) and can get better routing
WSo if you aren't using anything cf in front, unproxying is a solid choice
Wyou're applying them to multiple paths
Wso if you hit multiple of the rules... yeah

RI am trying to add a Custom Domain but it want to do a DNS Transfer but my domain is already on Cloudflare
EIf you have multiple accounts it may be pending on a different one, in which case just remove the pending zone
BHello everyone, I have a question regarding to DNS a domain to CloudFlare pages.
I have a CloudFlare page project with multiple branch. I want to point my domain to the selected branch for example
I have a CloudFlare page project with multiple branch. I want to point my domain to the selected branch for example
- Domain Abc.com with point to branch1.project.pages.dev
- domain Xyz.com with point to branhc2.project.pages.dev
But with I config the CNAME for root of Abc.com and Xyz.com to the branch domain then it cannot work.
Could anyone please give me some advise for this?
RAlright Will try
RThank you that helped
GHi guys i have a question, I have the free plan, and I have an app listening for the 8080 port, can I protect this app whit redirects and SSL, in Cloudfare ? Thx a lot

logpush = true
MI'm using Hono Functions (edge runtime) with nextjs, at a point I need to add a middleware to the Edge Function to authenticate users, which will need access to env variables to get some secret keys. The middleware doesn't seem to find my env variables, anyone faced this issue before?
CNo. Pages does not support logpush
Sgot it, ty
JAnyone else having issues with commits not getting picked up by pages today?
JThanks, i've been checking for 20 minutes, must have just missed it
はIs there a way to apply WAF and rate limiting rules to .pages.dev domain for my project? I can add those to my custom domain, but it seems those are not applied to the .pages.dev one
HYou cannot, no. Though you can set up a redirect so no one can hit your pages.dev domain directly?
はHmm, how does the redirection work?
Cif you're super cool with enterprise the account waf would probably apply
HCloudflare Docs
Learn how to use Bulk Redirects to redirect your *.pages.dev subdomain to your custom domain.
はI thought that would create infinite redirection
はSo it actually checks the host header
HIt’s magic
HBut yeah, the above works fine
HA blog about the stuff I do. Some of it is fun, some of it is cool, but it is all me.
はThat worked perfectly, thanks for the answer!
