The circle is complete
Could it be DNS?
Possibly, but there was a major cloudflare outage today that probably caused it.
I haven’t seen anything specific, but Cloudflare says its “global network” is down (regional networks are fine).
So yeah, maybe DNS like AWS.
impossible! I checked!
Good thing cloudflare is only used on half of all websites, otherwise this would be a major outage! Let’s keep centralizing our services though!
Yeah everyone I know, including myself, got this message today.
Its such a bad idea to centralize the web like this. But its anyway turning into Ai generated shit isnt it, probably will be easier to stop using it once its all AI.
I have this hope, that with all the AI garbage and shit social media algorithms, that there will be some kind of rebirth, where a new type of internet will look somewhat more like it did in the late 90s and early 2000s. Maybe through tor or something similar. It will be niche again, for techies and geeks and smart funny creative people. The normies can stick to Twitter and TikTok and Netflix and whatever corporate garbage. Maybe tor and the fediverse will play roles in this rebirth. Or maybe I’m just being too optimistic.
Got some lovely messages from my home monitoring :)
You using them instead of Google for DNS?
Cloudflare as DNS and proxy.
But also some other I monitor for connection issues.
Edit:
Literally got spammed so much by the telegram monitoring that I muted it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah and what was that “security” kernel module update from Cockblock that bricked like half of the Windows systems on earth like a year ago or something? Single points of failure. Smart.
Crowdstrike. I don’t think that fits the “single point of failure” part.
We need isdowndetectordown.com.
Don’t you mean downdetectordowndetector.com?
Maybe it’s just your browser. We can’t be sure that it’s down until we check it on downdetector.
Its actually cloudflare.

Blahaj zone is down too, presumably anything that routes traffic through CF.
CF
I did a double take; thought you said OF.
Ive been using blahaj fine for past several hours with no issues
I couldn’t view any content hosted on blahaj, kept getting a CF http 500 error. Poats that had already federated out were fine but links back to uploaded content were all broken.
Weird. I see new posts on local comms. And i see posts in “all”. I don’t super understand how the lemmy federation works though
I mean it all looks like its working now, it was around 1 hr 30 ago when I tried
Interesting. Ive been using blahaj lemmy and matrix all day no issues
Has it detected itself?
The detectives don’t detect if you logged on to the service,
Who are ready to hear the worst about their websites disappearance,
No, but its at least a red colored message
Everyone who remembers the interwebs before these fancy-pants “down detectors” gets a free day. Enjoy! Have an ice cream!
Cloudflare is down, yes
A paradox
yea it’s cloudflare having weird issues. it’s affected tons of websites.
It’s really too bad they have amassed this much power. It’s not what the internet was meant to be.
None of it is. Same with all the corporate social media shit.
We know. But this is funny.
Is this the event that makes the universe collapse into itself?
Its because cloudflare is having issues. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/
Task failed successfully, I guess.
