Both Lemmy.world and my server rely upon Cloudflare for SSL, DDOS protection, CDN services, etc. I use it to provide me with a Cloudflare tunnel to get around not being able to forward ports.
Outages have put this dependance to question, and the same with recent news about the US government obtaining data through subpoenas. It’s a free service that takes care of many of the difficulties when it comes to hosting your service online, but everyone knows that free is not free.
What do you all think about Cloudflare?
F2B for ddos protection?! You have absolutely no idea what you’re doing. At all.
You’re right, I was writing this from the top of my head and remembered f2b as simply the banning one and didn’t properly check its capabilities for ddos. Sorry for that
