People using Cloudflare, are you still happy with it? Would you consider any self-hosted alternative? (discuss.online)

Genuine question, so please don't be mean to whoever responds. Better to learn than to judge.

Curious if people who are on Cloudflare are considering any selfhosted alternatives? If not, interested to hear what is a deal breaker in regards to using a service besides Cloudflare. I do hear a lot of praise for Cloudflare when facing DDOS, and always happy to learn more!

I wasn't really inconvenienced by the outage. I got up to check a couple things that morning, saw apps were not responding, checked Cloudflare's status page and noticed things were a bit wonky. So we'll drop back to our trick back and rock on for the time being. At the very least, we'll use the tried and true 192.168.1.110:7575...old school before everything is as nice as it is now.

    I have all my domains on my pihole pointed to the local address, so I only noticed when my uptime monitoring of the external sites started pinging me. But for me, the outage was at 10pm, so it really didn't matter either way.
