People using Cloudflare, are you still happy with it? Would you consider any self-hosted alternative? (discuss.online)

Genuine question, so please don't be mean to whoever responds. Better to learn than to judge.

Curious if people who are on Cloudflare are considering any selfhosted alternatives? If not, interested to hear what is a deal breaker in regards to using a service besides Cloudflare. I do hear a lot of praise for Cloudflare when facing DDOS, and always happy to learn more!

It made it insanely simple to tunnel my domain to my audiobooks. A little down time in exchange for ease of use and being able to send tech illiterate family a url to share my content send well worth it.

Also their registrar is decently priced so that's a plus

Have you tried other domain registrars, or other services before cloudflare?
