About 15% of overall internet use cloudfare services.. And if we consider top websites globally, easily 30-40% websites use Cloudfare. Majority of them use their free services as the free tier itself provide enough security and useful features for the websites. So, blindly blocking the free tier IPs of cloudfare is not a smart move by Jio or any other service provider. Hope this is fixed amicably soon.
 
I wonder if they are working on resolving it with Cloudflare. For a short while, I noticed a website using Cloudflare free plan extremely quick to load. I checked its co-location and it was Mumbai. I checked some other sites, and they were all using Mumbai server and I was getting around 30ms ping to them.

Hope Jio is actually trying to fix it. Or it might even be Cloudflare just temporarily trying things to make stuff work properly.

After a short while, every website started using different servers though. :(

I always wondered why this forum loaded slow, doesn't matter fiber broadband or other telcos (4g/5g). I use custom secured DNS all the time so I knew without Cloudflare or any other caching service it will always be slower but today it opened like a breeze and now I know why. Thanks for the update .
