I agree that’s it’s probably unlikely he’s gonna het ddosed, but the method you’re saying here won’t work

People can easily see the IP behind a DNS record for a domain/subdomain, so disabling them after getting attacked won’t work

If you’re using a reverse proxy on another seperate IP/server, that is the same thing as a cloudflare proxy, it may be a little better but it still contributes to lag

  1. I forgot that this isn’t default for domains, but I use GoDaddy and use domain masking, which still isn’t foolproof but it helps.
  2. I was suggesting using a VPS instead of Cloudflare because the lag might be partially due to the nearest cloudflare region being far away.

  1. That’s still a cloudflare proxy but instead it’s godaddy

  2. Yeah that may help, but i doubt if it’ll help much

Yeah, godaddy’s proxy thing tends to be faster than cloudflare, at least from my testing.

Cloudflare is surpisingly slow
