SSL handshake errors, origin web server is working fine

original title: Cloudflare serving 525 SSL handshake failed however the origin server is indeed serving valid SSL the issue appeared randomly, solved itself, and re-appeared at 16:18 UTC: https://discord.com/channels/595317990191398933/1282485004491821171/1282735468601016330 --- I have no clue what is going on, everything worked then it suddenly stopped working. Example affected pages: https://wiki.revolt.chat/ https://api.revolt.chat/?cacheBust=1 To double check, I have updated my hosts file to bypass Cloudflare and I am able to establish a connection just fine, it's just Cloudflare is now refusing to connect. Using Caddy2 as my server, have also regenerated the certificates and updated literally everything in the hopes that it is something on my end to no avail. Other physical nodes work fine (Cloudflare is able to serve pages from them) and are accessible except for the most important one. I was going to be asleep an hour ago btw

I have updated https://app.revolt.chat to a DNS-only record, it now works fine (again to confirm this seems to be on CF's end) oh and btw i've always had SSL set to Full (Strict) and never changed it Flexible doesn't work => just gives "web server gave unknown error" Nothing changed, it just started working again. 16:18 UTC stopped working, see below that was a completely unnecessary hour of my time (that i probably couldve slept through if someone didnt manage to get my attention immediately) please dont push to production on sundays thanks. the issue is back https://help.revolt.chat https://wiki.revolt.chat etc all knocked offline again

just to rule a couple of things out again: - server has almost no load - I can connect directly by updating my hosts (bypassing Cloudflare) so the server is serving valid SSL

The community has figured out that you can spam requests/refresh to get pages to load

Hello. I'm having the same problem. What do you mean you can spam requests? Just keep reloading the page or ? And does this "fix" last forever or are you still having problems?
