It’s not the sort of thing you just turn on or off at will, you either use cloudflare to protect your website, or you don’t.

It takes 15 - 20 sec to load the side and than it says: 500 Internal Server Error. nginx


Edit: That was three times this morning and now it is gone.

Can we make the site members only for the next 3 days? It is currently unusable.

Oh man I have laptop trouble myself so can hardly do anything here content-wise :(

As for site performance, now it's fine.
Also, we are still behind cloudflare's reverse proxies, and the under-attack-mode gets activated automatically when load becomes too high. Perhaps a bit too slowly.

I see it was on-off-on until about 2:00 CET, then all fine, then another period today from 18:00 to 22:00 where we had several load spikes and anti-bot kicked in, but since then ok.

I'm keeping an eye on things even though I'm unable to post or write much myself atm.
