Woke up thinking my internet is being funky, switched over DNS, and still a load of problems... It really shows the scale of Cloudflare nowadays eh?

I got "500 nginx" errors accessing forums.thinkbroadband.com earlier this morning. That explains it:

Code:
$ ping forums.thinkbroadband.com
PING forums.thinkbroadband.com.cdn.cloudflare.net (104.20.170.77): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 104.20.170.77: icmp_seq=0 ttl=57 time=5.620 ms

Using Quad9, did not notice the issue until I looked at the family pihole vps.
I’ve set my primary as 9.9.9.9 too and secondary as Cloudflare. It was only after I got the 2nd identical 500 nginx error that I suspected a CDN issue. To be fair they recovered it pretty quickly
 
Self inflicted howler.

Fast forward to 2022 and companies that should know better take the best efforts of their predecessors over the last five decades to engineer protocols and services to make the internet inherently survivable, routable and performant in the face of isolated problems….

…and proceed to make a giant single point of failure. Awesome guys. Well done 🤔🙈
 
The more I see this, the better I feel about several adguard home and pihole vpses running unbound to resolve things, as I can prove it's not my end.
