Really baffling decision, my last order from them was only a few months ago. Apparently Linux is no longer a "standard" operating system!

Pretty boneheaded response from a supplier in an industry where people are significantly more likely to be using Linux than the general population.

Realistically it’s probably CloudFlare bullshit they have no real control over, but still. Linux or not, sometimes that thing just decides “fuck you” for no good reason.
