What does that mean? How do you access HN through CloudFlare and what do you mean by AWS not supporting TLS1.3? You can certainly run any https server on EC2, including one that supports TLS1.3.

As written, it seems to suggest HN is in the Cloudflare cache. But, I don't think there's a way to access the cached version if a site's not down. I wasn't around during today's outage, so I can't speak to whether a generic Cloudflare cached version of HN was available during the downtime.
