I think cloudflare died considering the fact that I have 4 notifications of my stuff going down and wasteof not working

None of my websites I own/manage were affected. Possibly were just unlucky and the colo you were connecting to went down :(

imagine using cf

I don't have to imagine! Also, I don't have to worry about exposing my IP, getting DDoSed, cache, ssl, dns.. the list goes on and on :)

neither do i, it just does it

also “exposing my ip” erm… you do that by using the internet

I don't browse the internet on my VPS. Also I don't want my VPS IP public information, since I run things that I'd rather not be brute forced/spammed/be a bypass of the protections that cf provides.

i’m not, i’m actually goated cause i don’t contribute to the centralisation of the internet

you are not the “greatest of all time” just because you don’t want to use cloudflare or something similair. I use it because I am a sysadmin and care about not having my services go down because stupid people.

what are you gonna do if you get DDoSed? hmm?

(side note: you are not going to win the argument, there is nothing to win) :)
