@rayotron We know Cloudflare can be annoying when it blocks real people, but for now it works for us because the site gets hit with a lot of malicious bots, hacking attempts, and other security threats. It also helps keep the site fast for readers in different parts of the world. We’re genuinely open to good free alternatives, but from what we’ve seen, most services with a similar mix of DNS, CDN, and security either aren’t free or get paid quickly once a site gets more traffic. What alternatives you'd recommend?
