> if Cloudflare is down no one will blame you since the internet is down.
That is true. it is also the problem. It means the biggest providers do not even need to bother to be reliable because everyone will use them anyway.
Well, no. If they are unreliable to the point of being an outlier when compared to the alternatives then people will switch. At this stage they’re not an outlier.
Maybe not, but they are approaching it. I wouldn't use it for anything funded with my own cash, I no longer recommend it as a first choice, but I'm not suggesting it gets replaced yet. It's somewhat in the 'legacy tech' category now in terms of how I perceive it and deal with it.
They are often promoted as bing more reliable.
