Is your blog/website behind a CDN?
I recently released a quick tool [0] to visualise latency for websites from around the world (as tested from AWS Lambda), and was surprised to have folks let me know it convinced them to setup a CDN.
Do you have a CDN in front of your websites, HN?

Wish you would have posted the aggregated results so we could get an idea.
I suspect if most blogs want to improve their loading time they would have better results getting rid of the 20MB of trackers before breaking the web a little further with stuff like cloudflare.
CDN for my blog? Nope. That adds complexity and gives power to CDNs. Besides, CDNs and reverse proxies are blocked by SourceHut Pages anyhow (https://srht.site/limitations).
Using Cloudflare for my WP website which recieves over 2 million visitors a month from around the world. Went from crashihng all the time to hardly ever as Cloudflare became very efficient with its cache system.
I'm using Netlify (free tier). I assumed that it has a CDN and the tool confirms it, thanks!
I'm on Substack with a custom domain. It uses its own CDN hosted on S3 I believe.
I use AWS Amplify, it uses CloudFront under the hood.
I'd like to see dynamic code running on a CDN.
