One of the things that i didnt like about cloudflare MITM as a service is their requirement if you want SSL/CDN that you must use their DNS. Overconcentration of infra within one single pint of disruption with no easy outs when the stack tips over. Sadly i dont see any changes or rethink to be more decentralised even after this outage.


to be clear, that's just a limitation on their free service. If you pay, you can keep your own DNS


Their paid "professional" plan also has this limitation, only "enterprise" and up does not.


The $199/month/zone Business plan already offers this feature.


ah, didn't realise that, thanks


Yeah they keep re-inforcing bad vendor lockin practices. id guess the number of free users surpass the paying ones , and situations like these leave them all unable to recover.
