Cloudflare’s automatic optimization being “Incredible news for the WordPress community is at best an exaggeration, at worst it’s a blatant manipulation of the truth.

In all fairness to Cloudflare, their new service technically “worked” for me, but I use the term worked loosely. It didn’t seem to speed up anything, and that was before the thing completely broke.

I got no error message other than the script not found. Of course, this was after it had no errors for a week, and I made no changes. I was sitting there, and it crashed. Basically, the only way for my site to be unbroken was disabling automatic optimization.

One expects something like that on a free service. I’m not paying 5 bucks for something that doesn’t “deliver.”
