Was just about to mention this site. I'd also be interested in knowing on what points it will differ from it, assuming the founders of bribe.io know about the already-available alternative.

Contact CloudFlare to make them aware of the problem? London system status seems fine, so if there is indeed a problem, they might not be aware of it ( https://www.cloudflare.com/system-status ). Try a DNS cache flush and&#x2
