I agree on Cloudflare but never heard of their sponsorship. Just looked it up and if I got it right they and CDN77 are giving some of their paid CDN stuff CachyOS for free. I guess it means that the packages from Cachy repos will be proxied through Cloudflare for faster downloads but I don't know how big of an impact it has on user's privacy. Probably they can see our IPs, package names and whatever Pacman sends in it's queries, but they can't tamper anything considering there's a TLS encryption layer. I proxy my main browser through Tor, don't do much on the second one, and don't use a lot of packages, so I don't worry much :D So I guess they know at least my browser heh. Anyways I may be gravely mistaken and hope someone corrects me
