The recommendations to, basically, not keep all your eggs in one basket and have backups of config are surely good ideas. But if you have to plan on dropping cloudflare in some arbitrary 24 hour window, perhaps it’s CF that’s the problem. This sort of stuff and other recent articles about CF are so worrying that it’s now being run by the finance team (hence why every email they got in this article was from sales teams rather than any technical folks).

Also; if not registering domains on CF does anyone else do at-cost or otherwise super cheap pricing?

I’d say be wary of any public company and actively make plans to get out of any company that gets acquired by private equity.

Actually had a sales call with Cloudflare in the last month and I got some bad vibes from the whole experience. We did not end up going with them.

May I ask who you ended up going with? We had a similar experience recently and have some concerns with anything on CF.

Wisdom of the ancients: Always make sure your domain services are completely independent from your other service provider(s), regardless of whether Cloudflare is involved. (Sorry, no recommendations at this time.)
