They first acknowledged Dec 19 15:06 UTC, and it's still broken as I write this. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/

It’s not very broken then, because I've been using sites behind the Cloudflare CDN all day with no trouble. Even the status page says it's just intermittent errors.

It's not every request, it's spurious connection failures.

If anyone from Cloudflare is reading this: You say a fixed has been applied and you're monitoring results. IT IS NOT FIXED. IT IS FAILING CONSTANTLY RIGHT NOW

And https://downdetector.com/status/github/ is down again.

last error I've seen as of now was at 08:50... a good 40 minutes ago.

I can't believe more people aren't talking about this

I wasn't able to sign in a few minutes ago, but after a few tries it worked

If true, looking forward to the post-mortem. I guess no-one is on-call at Cloudflare.

It would appear that there is no sense of urgency or seriousness at the company and I assume that they might have taken the AI agent cool-aid.

Clearly that is not going so well, and it seems like they want to ruin their reputation on every incident.
