MODERATORS
People are wary about how internet got more and more centralized behind cloudlare. If you're ever getting caught in cloudlare's captcha hell because they flag your IP as suspicious, you'll get wary too because you suddenly realized how big cloudlare now when half of the internet suddenly ask you to solve cloudlare captcha.
Got it. Damn. I just switched some services to CloudFlare DNS today...now I guess I'll change them back.
Are you so easily swayed by a single post from a rando internet person?
Absolutely.
But, no, however the sentiment makes sense and as I am trying to disperse / decentralize most everything I can these days, including getting away from Google services, for example, this does make sense as well.
He actually looks at others' opinions and weighs the pros and cons unlike almost everyone here on lemmy.
