  • Remember when google was beloved by everyone back then when they’re still have “don’t be evil” motto? Cloudflare right now is like google back then: super useful, provides a lot of free services that would be expensive on other providers. But unlike google, if cloudflare go full evil in the future, the impact will be much larger because they’re an mitm proxy capable of seeing unencrypted traffics across all websites under their wing. Right now they’re serving ~30% of top 10,000 websites and growing.

    Whelp, it’s not great. Ideally, you’ll need at least NAT type B to be able to play online without issues.

    You may improve the score by assigning a static ip address to your nintendo switch in your router settings, then add it to the router’s DMZ. But this is assuming the source of the problem is the router’s firewall. If the source of the issue is your ISP using CGNAT, then not much you can do beyond changing ISP or talk to your ISP to see if they have any online gaming-friendly internet plans.
