Except that it wasn't their architecture which allowed them to weather this storm: it's Cloudflare's. And the storm is a whopping 1.85 requests per second, all coming from Europe which means this isn't even a DDoS to begin with.

Probably mincing words but I guess I consider cloudfare part of the architecture and not part of their infrastructure and it seems like you’re conflating the two?

I do get that the volume of data and requests they are handling hardly constitutes the claim of ddos.

But they didn't active the "Under Attack" mode in Cloudflare, so surely they must be doing it all by themselves.
