CloudFlare ToS Issues causing SSL domain mismatch

Open mbardelmeijer opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

Hey! We noticed that the 'gitcdn.xyz' domain doesn't have an valid SSL certificate anymore. Is this an known issue?

Wondering about this as well...

The domain has not expired, but is configured for the domains *.herokuapp.com and herokuapp.com. Looks like this is a misconfiguration at Heroku's end?

You could temporarily switch to https://gitcdn.link if you are running something in prod.

The TL;DR is that CloudFlare changes some policies near the end of December 2020, these changes were mostly innocuous, bar one new section: 2.8 of the ToS now states that no media can be delivered via their free tier, and to be able to serve them I would need to pay for a pro tier plan (~$20/month), though info on what plan I'd be required to choose is a little scarce.

Given the way this service can be used, there may be other outages coming as things stand.

My options are:

  • Force media (audio, images, video, etc) to go through a non-cached subdomain.
  • Work something out directly with CloudFlare, the service is free and open source after all.
  • Pay for a plan that includes coverage for media

I'll probably end up choosing the last option, and start a patreon to help cover the costs. So in the mean time, feel free to post alternative suggestions/feelings about a patreon, and we can discuss it!

Thanks for working on this, looks like everything is up and running as expected! I use the service in a pretty minimal way, but would be happy to support a patreon campaign or another type of service that helps keep gitcdn running. Thanks for all the time and effort that goes into keeping this project active!

Bitdefender keeps spamming me with this (again?).

Did something change?
