It's mostly just an experiment right now, but there could be some nice side-benefits running a nostr relay this way:

- Instead of exposing whatever IP address you get from your Internet provider, you gain provider "anonymity" in exchange for shifting that trust/dependency over to Cloudflare.
- Cloudflare has an amazing backbone with cutting edge caching & routing technology. In practice I've found that services often run a lot better for end-users once you plug in to their network. Sadly I think this is somewhat due to the centralizing forces of the current Internet.
- No need to punch holes in firewalls, NAT forward into a private network, etc.
- If necessary, you can turn on their DDoS protection very easily. Another big reason why you'll see a lot of services relying on them. 

 Ok I see, thank for the deep reply, I have also a relay in my home but I use a vps as reverse proxy to avoid my  exposing my ip. Maybe I should try to look at clouldlare also
