Fighting AI is cool I just have a reflexive hate for cloudflare. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Unmapped@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago* (2 children) Why do you hate cloudflare so much? I dont like how much control a for profit company has over the web. But they have a lot of really useful stuff. I have switched my self-hosted stuff to cloudflare tunnels(and tailscale) because it was so much easier then dealing with nginx and certs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] starshipwinepineapple@programming.dev 1 point 1 year ago I think the biggest thing I've seen are the privacy concerns over them getting such a large % of the internet's https traffic that it's essentially a man-in-the-middle (which includes your tunnel traffic). permalink fedilink source parent [+] DeprecatedCompatV2@programming.dev -7 points 1 year ago (1 child) If you knew who they protected, you would hate them too. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] NostraDavid@programming.dev 18 points 1 year ago (1 child) Oh man, I'm so happy you've told us, instead of making a snarky comment.
