There are multiple competitors though.

See: Azure Front Door, Amazon CloudFront, Google Cloud/Media CDN, Akamai, Fastly, BunnyCDN, and so on.

People are _choosing_ to use Cloudflare, whether that's based on cost, features, or even just brand recognition - but lack of options isn't the case.

Cloudflare has easiest usability and generous free tier

This. They caught me when they started offering decent DNS UI, held me when they gave me one-click SSL, and sealed the deal when they let me buy domains at cost.

I don't care what AWS offers because there's no way I'm venturing into that for my simple domains.

Free tiers are probably one of the most damaging practices for competition in the market for cloud services

And yet it still has competitors.
