Heads up: cloudflare has restricted some domains

[girish]

I use a cf domain for testing. It seems they pushed a recent change which disables the API for certain top level domains.

You cannot use this API for domains with a .cf, .ga, .gq, .ml, or .tk TLD

Curiously, they respond with a error pattern that breaks their API docs and this crashes cloudron It should be in errors but is now returned in error. Age old saying, don't trust anything that comes from the network. We will make a fix soon but in the meantime, if things are not working, be aware of this change.

There is some discussion here - https://community.cloudflare.com/t/unable-to-update-ddns-using-api-for-some-tlds/167228

Cloudflare is a security and privacy nightmare --- don't even touch with someone else's ten-foot bargepole

OK, @Trankery informed that this happens more most/all freenom domains. This includes .tech as well.
