Sourcehut is big enough that Cloudfare is neither cheap nor free, I think there was a discussion about this in another post.
Nor is it a good thing that Cloudfare has keys to half of the internet.
- solardev 3y agoWasn't talking about Sourcehut, but this comment's parent. And there are alternatives to Cloudflare. The point is just that DDOSes have been common for decades and they shouldn't be a surprise for anyone. They're an inherent part of the internet protocols we have and the freedom of routing. Saying "they shouldn't exist" is like saying bad actors shouldn't exist. Sure, that's a nice thought, but they do exist (and have existed long before Cloudflare) and we can't just pretend otherwise and believe that our service won't be affected. It's just a matter of time/luck.
