I don't know a technical things but Blender.io's SSL certificate is also use Cloudflare.
Is the Blender.io also shady scam? Please let me know any trusted mixer?
Did you read the link i posted?
I'm going to quote from it, mind you, i wrote this over a year ago, so it's not aimed specifically at you... It just summarizes this situation perfectly...

In my experience dealing with new mixer operators, a discussion between the mixing operator and myself usually falls in this pattern:
- Mixing owner: Look what a nice mixer i have, look at the nice pictures, look at all the bells and wistles, look at the fancy colors.... I even have moving images to keep you entertained while using my perfect service that is 100% anonymous in every way imaginable!
- Me: hey OP, your mixer uses cloudflare's SSL certificates as a MITM and google analytics
- Mixing owner: everybody is doing it, just have a look at our competitors
- Me: It's not because everybody else is wrong, you have to be too
- Mixing owner: some other lame excuse
- Me: That's a lame excuse (but worded politely)
- Mixing owner: we have a hidden service on tor
- Me: most users wouldn't even know you're using cloudflare, so they won't switch to the tor mirror (if they even know how to do this)
- Mixing owner: I'll put it on my todo list (under the section: "things to do when hell freezes over")
You're currently at step 3... you're saying: "somebody else made the same big, big, big, big mistake i did... So it's fine i made it aswell... I, on the other hand, am at step 4, telling you that it's not because your competitor is plain wrong, it would make it ok for you to be wrong aswell... Two wrongs do not make a right.
When i was little, my mother used to say: "if all your friends would jump into a deep well, would you do it aswell" every time i used the fact my friends did the same stupid thing as i did as an excuse...
Bottom line, if it is TL;DR; It does not matter, not even for a nanosecond, wether somebody else did the same thing as you did... If this other mixer is also using cloudflare, they are also not worthy of being called a mixer... Doesn't mean they're scamming their clients, they just do not care about their user's privacy... period...
