Man, cloudflare is like a few minutes.

Maybe their domain registrar features need to be better known.

Many other CDNs are also just few minutes. Or S3+cloudfront (if you've ever done it once before). Or github pages.

I agree with the direction, but wanted to give some ideas different than CF.

Great point about other CDNs. Just was thinking of a point and click one for the most part.
Ironically, I think their domain registrar features are too well known — I've moved all of my domains off of cloudflare after reading a thread on HN. The one where a person had their account blocked without explanation, and CF refused to transfer, effectively stealing a domain name from a paying customer (which must be a great business model).
Good to know. My thought was more cloudflare or similar built in from the start.
No, it is not. For a hobbyist it is overkill, for a professional it might require filling out some TPS reports.
I dunno.

The free cloudflare is such low hanging fruit to make any shared vps Wordpress hosting much better for next to nothing.

Could just be me.

But do keep complaining about how centralization is killing the internet!
There are other caching layers too.
