Cloudflare seems to have degrated performance. Half the requests for my site throw cloudflare 500x errors, the other half work fine.
However the https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ does not really mention anything relevant. What's the point of having a status page if it lies ?
Update Ah I just checked the status and now I get a big red warning (however the problem existed for like 15 minutes before 11:48 UTC):
> Investigating - Cloudflare is aware of, and investigating an issue which potentially impacts multiple customers. Further detail will be provided as more information becomes available. Nov 18, 2025 - 11:48 UTC

Status pages are basically marketing crap right now. The same thing happened with Azure where it took at least 45 minutes to show any change. They can't be trusted.

What is the lie ?
> Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues
cloudflare has a specific service names "Network" and it's having issues..
Please read my comment again including the update:
For 15 minute cloudflare wasn't working and the status page did not mentioned anything. Yes, right now the status page mentions the serious network problem but for some time our pages were not working and we didn't know what was happening.
So for ~ 15 minutes the status page lied. The whole point of a status page is to not lie, i.e to be updated automatically when there are problem and not by a person that needs to get clearance on what and how to write.
