You seem to have missed that @ES Dev Team does not use Cloudflare and also does not want to. Cloudflare is not a given - many people do not want to use it, i.e. for privacy reasons.

Is this configurable? While it does not hurt I don't need it there (and would prefer to not have it there for reasons of privacy). Where I really would like to have it on the other hand would be in the list of current visitors, namely with the guest visitors, as this would help me to support...

Not so sure - when the thread was created the latest statement from XF was left to bee seen (which has happened in the meantime). The silicence created fear with some which lead - among other things - to this thread. While in the meantime the statement was released the whining, the...

Well - if you leave your phantasy aside this is what they actually said: Sept. 13th 2024: Dec. 17th 2024 So basically your misery comes from not properly reading what has been said but instead claiming something that hasn't been said and getting furious about that this has not been...

There's a difference between dreams, intentions and reality. Didn't you dream of becoming rich and famous at at least one point in your life or even intended to? How did it work out? ;) Do your friends, family and the public still yell at you because you did not make your intentions become true...

Well, if you say (like you did) that the companies business model would be "lacking" it would no doubt be helpful to know what the business model actually is to make such a statement... So you seem - in opposite to what you say - to care about the business model - insofar that you give advice...

That speaks for itself. You jugdge drastically about something where you admit not having the sligthest clue about. This seems to be also true for wider parts of the rest of your posting. Cloud services are not the main focus. It is a welcome source of additional revenue. You completely ignore...

That is probably what everybody wants and expects who plans to start a forum (hard to imagine that someone would want the opposite). With XF you can consider this a given. Pretty well in my experience. As you seem to be a SEO studio yourself you probably know about the generic topics and...

Strong statement. Given the threads where people complain (in my eyes wrongly) in a row about the "insane price" for XF self hosted licenses I am not so sure if a drastic rise in price would be a good idea. And how do you know that the goal of XF would be having a huge team? Regarding...

@Osman: Is is possible to block on a ASN basis as well? The featurelist is somewhat unclear here: Would come in very handy in defense against AI bots and scrapers. What would also be useful was, if the list of current visitors would be enriched with country flags (when viewed with admin...

As this add on shows health/performance data of the (local) server itself is running on there is no difference wether you use Cloudflare or not. If it does not work there must be another reason - using CF has nothing to with it.

Out of curiosity: How come that this ist labeled "unmaintained" despite being released just 1 hour ago? Does not seem to make sense and the housekeeping criteria say: ... which obviously cannot be the case.

You have really not learned anything - already again on the hunt to spread new FUD and new rumors. :rolleyes: I did not expect that my answer to Chris' would become true so fast: 👇

Very interesting read. The Provider that was on top of their list - Host Royale - has been in my logs as well some weeks ago and I blocked it entirely - worth it. It is AS203020.

Thanks for the transparency and the heads up @Chris D ! When all of a sudden private things hit hard with effects on business it is emotionally difficult to make this public. Prioritizing the privat and family affairs is the only right decision in such a situation and the only thing that counts...
