CF isn't lazy at all. Their docs often aren't that great but it's because they seem to be prioritizing launching new products and features

Overall I'm quite positive towards core Cloudflare products like Tunnels, Workers, R2, KV etc, but a lot of newer products are often either thoroughly broken (e.g. Cloudflare AI) or unusable due to insufficient documentation (e.g. Email Routing).

After being burned a few times, I think I'm going to ignore any new Cloudflare product for 12 months after stable release. If their products worked as advertised, I'd be willing to pay considerably more. I think their commitment to the free tier is hamstringing them a little bit.

I also got burned and yes I also feel this way about it, i.e. AutoRAG has huge issues too, not to mention the whole MCP/Agents suite of SDKs...

Yeah I just use Workers and Durable Objects. Stuff like Queues built on DO is better to just use DO

Right. Cloudflare is an authorized man in the middle attack.
