Genuine question, so please don’t be mean to whoever responds. Better to learn than to judge.
Curious if people who are on Cloudflare are considering any selfhosted alternatives? If not, interested to hear what is a deal breaker in regards to using a service besides Cloudflare. I do hear a lot of praise for Cloudflare when facing DDOS, and always happy to learn more!
Yes, and in fact I am collaborating in a neighborhood project for the implementation of a local ISP. Obviously you are right, with the way the internet is built it is inevitable to depend on some centralized systems out of reach, I cannot lay a submarible cable xD. But other than in cases of absolute need, where there is really no alternative, I want an internet more like it was before I was born, just people communicating using local infra, not Internet Monsantos
