Why is the LinusTechTips website Down so often?

I usually get the message "The site is offline, refresh for a live version", or something similar to that.

There are short offline moments. Mostly because of Cloudflare looses connection. No need to worry over them. @colonel_mortis.

Is cloudflare a sucky host then? Because I've not really seen any other host with downtimes that often. I've had days in a row, some months back, where it was offline.

Cloudflare isn't the hosting company. Its virtual firewall against DDoS attacks. So the site might be running whole time but Cloudflare just losts connections to it.
