@ -93,6 +93,20 @@ ensure better distribution of traffic to available instances for each service.
Farside also has built-in IP ratelimiting for all requests, enforcing only one
request per second per IP.
## Regarding Cloudflare
Instances for each supported service that are deployed behind Cloudflare are
not included when using [farside.link](https://farside.link). If you would like
to also access instances that use Cloudflare (in addition to instances that do
not), you can either use [cf.farside.link](https://cf.farside.link) instead, or
deploy your own instance of Farside and set
`FARSIDE_SERVICES_JSON=services-full.json` when running.
If you do decide to use [cf.farside.link](https://cf.farside.link) or use the
full instance list provided by `services-full.json`, please be aware that
Cloudflare takes steps to block site visitors using Tor (and some VPNs), and
that their mission to centralize the entire web behind their service ultimately
goes against what Farside is trying to solve. Use at your own discretion.
