You can use CF and lose relevance. Or even go beyond that and outright geoip-block .

Ofc it's your choice.

For some reason there are many small sites I have no problem visiting and then there are those CF users which may or may not work at any given moment, forcing me to ignore them.

Well, good luck. You are cutting yourself from the internet, not cutting me off.

You can use CF and lose, say, 10% of your audience (number pulled from thin air). Or you can not use CF, be taken down by scraping bots or a dos attack or whatever and lose 100% of your audience.
