Thanks for the explanation. I still don't know exactly what's going on here. How do the DNS records look on the Cloudflare UI?

Then you have to ask helpkit.so why they are using render.com to do the redirect.

help.leavemealone.app -> CNAME -> help.leavemealone.com -> CNAME -> leavemealone.helpkit.so

Gitbook is nowhere in the chain
