(P.S.: the parts about repos and ff/chrome add-ons are to be taken with a grain of salt, they are mostly crap.)
TL;DR - Cloudflare sucks.

Is Cloudflare safe yet? No.
Cloudflare is one of the Content Delivery Networks on the Internet. Itβs responsible for serving at least 10% websites, while also providing VPN and DNS resolver services.
Unfortunately, there are many issues with Cloudflare's services, which could have an impact on the stability and safety of the internet as a whole. There have been some major internet disruptions as a result.
π‘ How is Cloudflare harmful?
Cloudflare is trying to centralize the internet
The internet was built upon foundations of decentralization. In a traditional scenario, many internet services are provided by completely different subjects.
π Cloudflare is:
βΌοΈ Providing domain registration services
βΌοΈ Providing DNS nameservers
βΌοΈ Providing DNS resolvers
βΌοΈ Proxing and decrypting website traffic
βΌοΈ Providing NTP services
βΌοΈ Providing VPN services
You might wonder, how exactly is this harmful? There are two main concerns - robustness and privacy.
Cloudflare's outages are impacting more and more services. Trusting a single company to do everything right and to have a 100% stability and availability is never a good idea. They actively discourage combining the use of their services with services of other companies as well.
For example, if you register a domain with Cloudflare, you cannot use your own nameservers unless you pay for a Business or an Enterprise plan.
Having vast amounts of data at their disposal, Cloudflare can aggregate information from all of their various services to accurately pinpoint individual users as well.
