Moving to non US companies seems like a good thing these days. As much as I do developer work I'm not overly knowledgeable on these types of services especially when they need to scale up to a level needed for this, but awesome to hear.

Thank you SO much for this! It may seem like a small step, but its an incredibly ambitious leap for a small project like Fedecan to make do without Cloudflare

what provider do you use to host the actual instance on?
been looking for a good one for some publicly facing services, went with xenyth, seems alright but they charge in USD despite being canadian
replies:
Very cool, good work
What are you planning to use for DNS? I am looking to ditch Cloudflare too, only remaining thing is DNS
replies:
Dang, now thelemmy.club might lose the title of the only Lemmy instance listed under Canada at join-lemmy.org lol
Well done!
What happened to deflect.ca? Was it just Cloudflare under the covers?
replies:
Thanks!
Wooooooo!
Did you use their WAF?

Since this change took effect on piefed.ca, I have been occasionally running into errors. It lasts for minutes or maybe hours (I have not analyzed it that closely).
This is from earlier this morning (8:20 CST). piefed.ca loaded ok, but clicking into a post I got this error (ignore the address bar, Firefox doesn’t show the whole URL).
