By the way, is there is any way the http version of the site can be preserved in any way? Before the migration it was there. Basically both the http and https versions of the site should remain open instead of just https with http redirecting to https. It should be possible with Cloudflare.Many of our peers (zlib, varnish cache software, libpng) are using the http and https structure and I like this way so older laptops and devices and access the site before. The Cloudflare cert are new and older devices may not have its certification installed.On Tue, Oct 26, 2021 at 1:25 PM, Anurag Thakur <devanuragthakur@gmail.com> wrote:Well, changing to cloudflare was just a 2 line change, and if it gives us worldwide superfast CDN for free, I don't see any reason not to use it :)RegardsAnuragOn Tue, 26 Oct, 2021, 10:50 PM Bermler, <freetype@protonmail.com> wrote:I don’t think having the site behind Cloudflare is necessary at least for now.
