Am I wrong for blocking the Cloudflare domain because I assume they are gathering as much as google? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Depends on the Lemmy server. So not all of Lemmy goes down.

I know the server I'm on went offline during the last cf outage. Never occurred to me this wouldn't be the case for all of Lemmy.

Edit: early morning comment always ends with me making spelling mistakes.

That was a great time. My little server never felt snappier because all the big instances had stopped sending their content. And I could laugh at them because I wasn't affected.
