Kuno XMR Fundraising Platform is Down - We need a fundraiser to get this on a proper hosting provider ASAP
(monero.town)
This should really be a high priority service with dedicated admins.
If hosting fund raisers we need near 100% uptime.
Also using cloudflare is a bad idea as it centralizes web traffic.
Maybe ideally this should be decentralized, e.g. with 2 or 3 mirror sites. One could post/edit things using whichever instance, and it’ll be visible on every mirror, etc. Like, fail-safe redundancy?

Also, look into evaluating https://basedflare.com/# as an alternative to cloudflare.
Come to think of it, any CDN may have the same problem (MitM-ness etc). Not sure. Considering alternative options is good in general, though. What I hate about CF is indiscriminate Tor blocking. Tor is also used as a humanitarian tool, helping various vulnerable users (like those who live in an oppressive country with heavy Internet censorship). Blocking it is like collaborating with oppressive regimes.

Not like, it actually IS.
It wouldn't surprise me in the least to find out that CF operate quite a few Tor entries.
Any alternative is worth supporting.
