Sure, there's alternatives: Aws, Google cloud and Azure all have their own cdns if you want to use those

It's not that you're wrong. It's more that I don't understand what you're proposing as an alternative. To add to the comments here pointing out that that's how CDNs work: for many designs of website, the CDN essentially is the website, being served from a cache by the provider. Even when this isn't the case, you would normally have a load balancer in front of whatever was serving your website so that if you need to swap out the server for maintenance upgrade, etc. you don't need to tell who your visitors to go to a different address. In that case, your certificate would be attached to load balancer rather than the server behind it.
If this was a 1990s and I were trying to run my own server on my own hardware in my bedroom, you might have a point, but please explain how you would implement an alternative in any meaningful way today.
If you follow the links, you'll see that it's essentially a new name for/ release of CBL-Mariner. from the GitHub readme:
CBL-Mariner is an internal Linux distribution for Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure and edge products and services.
Sorry but at this point my money is on the Post Office being incompetent and dishonest. They have form given the ongoing Horizon scandal.
- This is a newly introduced system
- There's no evidence it has ever worked correctly
- I'm not seeing any corroborating evidence, e.g. people being prosecuted for making or selling forged stamps
- I'm not seeing an explanation offered as to why such forgery is only happening now as opposed to before barcodes were introduced
For carrying the unauthorized number porting, Katz received $1,000 in Bitcoin per SIM swap (total of $5,000), plus an (unspecified) percentage of the profits earned from the illicit access to the victims' devices.
For his actions, Katz faces a statutory maximum of five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the financial gain or loss from the crime
The article is from the guardian ( a reputable UK newspaper) reporting on an article by 'Which?' a UK consumer magazine with some very specific standards. The Which? Press release has citations.

This is the second order effect that doesn't seem to have been at the centre of the conversation. It's all very well if you are an established company who took out an office lease at the beginning of the 2020s, you have a bunch of boomer managers who basically need daycare, and the HIPPO at the top is also a boomer acting all entitled about having people come back to the office.
It's something else. When you're starting a new business and seeking investment capital, do you think your investors are going to want to spend their money on office accommodation and ability staff like receptionists, cleaners etc, if they think they can get equal or better results without it?
Yeah, it's at least the second week, what with this and the 0.19RC 'upgrade' breaking app access I also have had to migrate
We're now in the second week of an incompatible pre release version on SDF. Other instances have also reported federation problems with this instance. I haven't seen any sort of statement here about the situation or action to fix it. People in glass houses etc...
I came to Lemmy largely because of the Reddit API switch off and that's effectively what this instance has done...
I don't know how 'irreversible' it might be in this particular situation, but I've had to fall back to one of my alt accounts on another instance. I'm not sure how sensible it is to stay on a smaller instance where the admins think it's clever to deploy a pre-release server version to production without notice, testing, or a rollback strategy

Thanks. This is pushing the limits of my current understanding, but unless I'm mistaken, this reads like 'anyone who chooses may hijack part of your domain at any time if you both use cloudflare'. Sounds crazy.
