The Daily Stormer in 2017 was as you state. However, last year they kicked off 8chan, which was in part due to the El Paso and Dayton shootings according to their blog post about it[0]. I suspect that's what mrtksn is referencing.

Yes, because he is a troll... he got exactly the response he wanted, infamy and people still talking about it years later.

Do you have any link to what The Daily Stormer actually said? All I can find is various rewordings of it. They will of course be reworded in the least charitable way in most cases.

Thanks for the clarification. Do you remember why the blog in question was a hot topic?

And the proper response from CloudFlare should have been: No we don't, but since we're ethical (unlike these assholes), we'll still provide them service.

Literally no one believed then, or believes now, that CF are crypto-Nazis. But we all know they don't actually have any kind of moral or ethical virtue, and will fold for a common troll. Oops.
