Down 6% after hours, for reasons that I don't understand.<p>Personally, I'm more-sure that Cloudflare will be around in 25 years than I am that Facebook will be around in 25 years. Their customers are real-valuable customers paying for a real-valuable service, and that's not going away anytime soon. Meanwhile, their serverless stuff is very cool and unique. I think their durable objects are going to go mainstream someday. They work on hard/interesting/real technology, that's <i>gotta</i> be worth something.<p>I predict that one day, we'll see a C somewhere in "FAANGM".
Cloudflare is one of those things that if I'm asked about it I'll sound more positive than astroturfing. Their API's a re great, I've had to contact support <i>once</i> and my experience was good and their rates are certainly reasonable for the scale of projects I've used them on.
Solid results with exceptional margins and a healthy FY21 outlook. I wonder if markets just have unrealistic expectations (from the craziness of GME/AMC and cannbis stocks) or people are just taking profits on a ~400% run up since IPO.
Maybe I'm too old, and stuck in the mud with the pre-ICANN intention of the original TLDs, but does it seem odd to anyone else that they host their network services on .com and their corporate information on .net?
I mean this absolutely no thesis and it's money I can lose but been invest in companies that have solid, quality documentation.<p>As one of them cloudflare's done me a solid so far.
Are there good alternatives to Cloudflare when it comes to
DDOS protection? I’m interested in this especially in the perspective of avoiding censorship, either from activist hackers or companies like Cloudflare making arbitrary decisions on allowed and disallowed content.
If I recall it correctly, Cloudflare was/is one of the few that are not trying to mine your data for sale. At least that's what I felt when their DNS surfaced. Hope the same goes for the rest of their services. In @ around 30$, out around 58$. Now I have some regrets T.T
Not bad financials. Healthy margins, relatively small (in my mind) losses and revenue growing well. At this rate they should be profitable in a year? 2 maybe?
My issue with Cloudflare is, that they don't do any content checks.<p>I remember a friend of a friend who knows someone who participated in various Anonymous missions, that CloudFlare is protecting islamic terrorist forums, and recently I learned fom another friend of a friend that they are also protecting QAnon's and Trump's online forum where rrcent insurrection was allegedly planned and coordinated.<p>There's tons if alternatives for those who don't want to do business with such a company.<p>E.g.: <a href="https://www.g2.com/products/cloudflare/competitors/alternatives" rel="nofollow">https://www.g2.com/products/cloudflare/competitors/alternati...</a>
