good luck with that!

nothing is ideal, and sometimes small sacrifices have to be made for the greater good. And yes, cloudflare can be annoying, but getting rid of them is like throwing out the baby with the bathwater. They're using their scale to fight the AI scale, so if you want to go it alone, it's going to...

obviously none of this is ideal, but the abuse by scraping bots is unprecedented and off the charts.

The most effective part for me was using cloudflare's country code data and blocking the blatant bad countries that have no useful value, and eventually the list was getting so long I said screw it, just allow specified good countries. Of course its important to ensure that the data is reliable...

I had the same problems early this year, so using cloudflare's free service has helped a lot for me. they now have an option to allow them to block AI scrapers, but before that I created this php code that gets included in the config file and run on every request, and it helped a lot too. It...

I was there for it. I didn’t buy or sell anything though, i was more focused on parking & monetization at that time.

portfolio size is obviously key, but should selling wholesale even count as a sale? certainly not comparable… maybe he was dumping crap domains on a naive investor.

I’ll take it for the $3 end if the range, haha.

good question, if anyone is putting out a notice like that then they should really summarize the changes, highlight them, etc

Only if at least 2 people bid $200 on the same domain, then it goes to auction. Otherwise it's an outright win for the high bidder.
