there are a million of cdn providers(bunny and beluga are among the cheapest). that is not an issue. even though it's not going to be free, at least you will no longer be the product. they are not reverse proxies like CF but changing links on your web is not that complicated. and every data center has a hardware ddos protection, you don't need a service for that if you use good web or server hosting provider. cloudflare is not really that special. the reason normal people even know the name CF is because it was free. not because of what it provided. and after they started censoring, there is no reason to keep using their services. they screwed themselves over by doing that. sooner or later they will stop being normies favourite and become purely corporate service.
