Oh, let me check down detector to see what's impacted.

Well, shit...

Funny when downdetector is down because they use cloudflare

"Further details will be made available when we've worked out how the AI screwed us this time"

TFW Cloudflare is down but I can't tell Lemmy about it because... Cloudflare is down (and Lemmy.world uses Cloudflare).

First Amazon, then Cloudflare. I'm glad this shit only goes down when I'm asleep.

It's almost as if having two companies control half the web is a bad idea...

Why the heck is everything stripped to them. I can't believe the grandfather's of the internet thought about a www which goes completely dark if some players like cloudflare, aws, azure etc went down. Put down these network oligarchs!

Just one more merger bro. I promise bro just one more merger and it'll fix everything bro. Bro... just one more merger. Please just one more. One more merger and we can fix this whole problem bro. Bro c'mon just give me one more merger i promise bro. Bro bro please i just need one more

switches over to stored media

…again

CloudFlare went from the muscle of the internet to a liability.

How the fuck is there no fallback in case of an outage?

Today, we remind you that AWS isn't the only single point of failure on the Internet.

Good thing that the dezentralized internet has a centralized arbiter that..if down, effectivly, gives the entire internet a single point of failure. As cloudflare seems to have a use, especially in modern times were everyone and their mother got an ai crawler sucking small servers dry, I wonder if there is anything left to have interconnected networks without some big shot buffering against accidently ddos

Ah.

That... would explain why I have been confused by / screaming at the internet today.

... wonderful.

Rolling internet brownouts untill the Tracer Tong ending it is then.

Relaying on one big entity is always a bad idea, self host powers

Multiple customers.

State actors: Let’s take down . . Ohhh . . Howabout cloudflare today.

DNS? DNS.

Pork rinds? Pork rinds.

Even my fediverse instance (lemmy.world) was down. The internet was invented so shit like this would NOT happen. Fuck the corporate internet.

Oh, I thought my eduroam was just being shit today, that's good to know
