And it looks like they have stopped developing IPFS and stuff so now the orphan IPFS developers have migrated to a new organization and Cloudflare is making a blog post that fakes as supportive but is actually stating that it will stop hosting the biggest IPFS gateway in operation and will just redirect traffic to some other gateways?

It's not very clear what is going on, but I guess finally the big corp(s) has decided to stop spending money on a sunking broken technology but is not honest enough to admit it so they will let the thing die very slowly over the next years instead of just killing it outright -- I guess the developers and other companies and some users are still way too involved and their cognitive dissonance wouldn't allow that to happen anyway.
