m5 hosting reported a "DDoS attack against a popular web site we host"

another submission notes that the https cert is newly cloudfare so looks like HN is using it to avoid the DDOS

You got it. Sorry everyone. Still working on it.

Any chance we can just keep HN on Cloudflare going forward and turn on caching for non-logged-in users?

I hope not. Cloudflare seems to block users from Cuba and Iran.

Thailand Mobile is also largely blocked..

Was fun, could not use around half the websites I am normally using

If HN is on Cloudflare, where will people report that Cloudflare is down?
