Thanks for the acknowledgement. Appreciate it's hard, false positives etc. Glad you see our PoV.

I do.

I'm irritated, however, that you picked on Cloudflare as a bad actor here when we strive to be transparent and quick to get out full information whereas others (e.g. Amazon) are slow as mud.

But I get that being on the other side of this is difficult when you don't have information.

Amazon, Google, seem far far worse. I wasn't intending for my post to me representative, just that the CF outage is recent and affects me more personally than the others atm. Also, I had zero expectation my comment would actually be read, this is quite a surprise.

If it's any incentive, if the status page had any inkling that something was wrong, I'd be first on here posting "omg their status page is real".

Fair enough. Thanks for making the comment. Made me think about how fast we act in terms of public status pages. And sorry that route leak affected you.

Well, it's understandable, if OP has been burned by Cloudflare's slowness in the past, and not by Amazon's.
