This should really be a high priority service with dedicated admins.
If hosting fund raisers we need near 100% uptime.
Also using cloudflare is a bad idea as it centralizes web traffic.

Also, look into evaluating https://basedflare.com/# as an alternative to cloudflare.
A privacy-centric hosting company having in-house DDOS-protection would be ideal? This basedflare thing may be better than CF, though it feels exactly like CF for me an end user. Their error message is unhelpful too:
A more-friendly error message would be: Use the “Standard” Security Level in Tor Browser; “Safer” “Safest” wouldn’t work for this. (Brave Search actually says something like that, nice to Tor users, though I seldom use Brave Search…)
@Saki
I literally came across basedFlare yesterday so no direct experience with it, though that error looks like a typical cloudflare error.
as for wasm compatability, the tor security-slider takes care of that as you suggest.
Come to think of it, any CDN may have the same problem (MitM-ness etc). Not sure. Considering alternative options is good in general, though. What I hate about CF is indiscriminate Tor blocking. Tor is also used as a humanitarian tool, helping various vulnerable users (like those who live in an oppressive country with heavy Internet censorship). Blocking it is like collaborating with oppressive regimes.

> Blocking it is like collaborating with oppressive regimes.
Not like, it actually IS.
It wouldn’t surprise me in the least to find out that CF operate quite a few Tor entries.
Any alternative is worth supporting.
@UncleIroh @tusker @Saki Is sjw involved in this?
@Zerglingman @Saki @tusker
Absolutely no idea.
