2 repliesIt went from very slow for me to completely down. Anything proxied by cloudflare is returning: HTTP ERROR 502

Same, I am also getting occasional `Please unblock challenges.cloudflare.com to proceed.` in Cloudflare Turnstile enabled websites.

That's weird, I have just got You tube to throw me 502 but now is working again

1 replyNo penalty for going down. Reliability is now a cost to them. You’ve got no alternative and they know it.

For us commoners sure, but enterprise customers usually have an SLA that defines uptime requirements... And penalties for missing them. I have to wonder how much they're paying out on those.

Just noticed timeouts on various "orange" endpoints as well as on R1 direct access.

Got some alerts about unreachable websites and APIs about an hour ago (Europe region). Looks settled now.
