If you need to rely on CuckFlare because you fear of getting DDoS'd or have been DDoS'd before, then maybe it means you'll need to up your security and not use over the top bloated soyware on your server.

After all, CuckFlare goes down sometimes too, and when they go down, all websites behind the great cloudwall will go down with it, effectively breaking about about 95% of the entire internet, because centralization.\
Because even websoytes that aren't behind CuckFlare will probably use one or more dependencies that's hosted on a server that is behind CuckFlare, especially notable with FontAwesome, because every soydev uses it, and they all use it over a CDN instead of just hosting it locally at the very least.
