Cloudflare Problems
There are concerns that the outages and service disruptions reported by Downdetector users across major AI platforms, including OpenAI, Claude, Grok, and Cursor, could be linked to an issue at Cloudflare.
Cloudflare's status page is reporting two active issues:
- HTTP/3 issue affecting R2 custom domains: Some websites or applications using custom domains connected to Cloudflare's R2 storage may experience failed or degraded requests over HTTP/3. “Monitoring” means Cloudflare has applied a fix and is watching the results.
