If you tend to upload images/memes etc., yes, it's a good idea. And very cheap (read: free) if you go with Cloudflare R2..
I've never used CF for object storage, I personally use Backblaze B2, it's pricing is extremely fair. If anyone needs object storage, it is something to consider, I am not sure how it compares to cloudflare though. There unfortunately isn't much documentation on config vars for object storage on lemmy/pict-rs I am still looking into this.
For most of the self-hosters here, Cloudflare will be free. I know many Mastodon and Akkoma users using Backblaze, so it's probably a good option too. I use it for my backups, and but not with their S3 API.
