Same experience!
CF is great. Their free tier is so good I can't believe people use other clouds for personal/small projects. The integration of products is also seamless: dns/ssl/workers/pages/storage for free!

I’m being bitten by this right now. Registered a domain in personal account, want to move to a different cloudflare account and I can’t since that’s completely unsupported. The recommendation is to transfer out to external registrar, wait 60 days, transfer back in.
Can’t even change the name servers, since that’s not configurable with cloudflare.
And I can’t move the domain out of cloudflare so I can change nameservers for 60 days because I just registered the domain…
Support very unhelpful, situation sucks.
I think they charge you their cost for domains hoping you'll pay for their other services later.
Overall it's been a good experience. Sometimes you have to use CloudFlare rules instead of simpler settings at other registrars.
