Comment on Self hosted DNS

Self-hosting an authoritative dns server is not a good idea for several reasons.
Cloudflare doesn’t have access to data hosted in your server unless you’re using their reverse proxy tunnel.
A momentary (if severe) blip in their availability isn’t a good reason to change providers.

That’s the conclusion I’m coming to. Saw a lot of posts from self hosters happy they aren’t affected by this. Figured there was some reason NOT to use Cloudflare (security, etc.). But it kind of just seems like a personal preference. Cloudflare has certainly had better uptime than all my services thus far 🙂

Cloudflare is a business service primarily and the people who should be worried about its monopoly are the businesses, not so much a handful of people running home servers.
