I left this note with Cloudflare ToS for the other frog-loving fren on Nostr:

nostr:nevent1qqs9a2xy3spvsslv8kxv3jaelfqs3vsu0p27m2gqfldk5ytaqlxsseqprdmhxue69uhksctkv4hzuctrvd5k7mre9eek7cmfv9kz7q3qa6we08n7zsv2na689whc9hykpq4q6sj3kaauk9c2dm8vj0adlajqxpqqqqqqzle32jt

In my case, they didn’t suspend my account. Cloudflare just started publicly restricting the videos (it’s "fun" – they actually serve media that says the video was restricted and you’re in violation of their ToS).

Mastodon has “S3-like” API support, but back then (this was years ago – no idea if things have improved) migrating media from the file system to S3-like services on Mastodon was pretty much open-heart surgery. I ended up with an "unproxied" (from Cloudflare’s perspective) subdomain hitting a new "video friendly" cheap CDN serving media from the S3 Like service.

The good news is I learned a lot about Mastodon internals and even some DevOps-y stuff in the process. 10/10, would definitely recommend. 😂
