Are we purchase shaming people here now for buying a cheap fucking domain on Cloudflare? You are so tediously petty, it amazes me people care to tolerate this.
Also cf is about the only way to make federation affordable and safe. If we didn’t use cf on programming.dev, the server charges per month would bankrupt me. I’m not getting nearly enough donations to cover the bandwidth costs for every single call, cf covers like 70% of the bandwidth for free just due to caching. And cf also allows you to block and report child porn, thus taking another burden off server administrators.
People that think you shouldn’t use cf just do not understand what it takes to run an instance.

Shame this is posted on a centralized Cloudflare instance, which causes problems for people using Tor,VPNs,CGNAT,etc:

It’s the beauty of the fediverse
I think whatever you’re doing is a little overkill for Lemmy. Normal users don’t have these issues.
