Sorry for the downvotes but this is true many times with some basic HA you get better uptime than the big cloud boys, yes their stack and tech is fancier but we also need to factor in how much CF messes with it vs self hosted, anyway the self hosted wisdom is RIP these days and I mostly just run cf pages / kv :)

That sounds a bit complicated and rather weird.
I still have my webby assets up with way longer uptimes than the biggies.
I don't need internet points. A satisfied PO is what I want to see as a business owner.
With only some mild blushing, you could describe us as "artisanal" compared to the industrial monstrosities, such as Cloudflare.
Time and time again we get these sorts of issues with the massive cloudy chonks and they are largely due to the sort of tribalism that used to be enshrined in the phrase: "no one ever got fired for buying IBM".
We see the dash to the cloud and the shoddy state of in house corporate IT as a result. "We don't need in-house knowledge, we have "MS copilot 365 office thing" that looks after itself and now its intelligent - yay \o/
Until I can't, I'm keeping it as artisanal as I can for me and my customers.
