Cloudflarestatus.com won't load when CF is down

Hi,

We had an issue with out local Cloudflare region recently, and during the outage the status page would not load for us.
https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ has a JS script dependency on polyfill.js from cdnjs.cloudflare.com, as CF was down for us the status page could not load.

If CF was returning a 502, etc the status page could have loaded (as my browser does not need the pollyfill loaded), but as the cloudflare region was accepting the JS request and hanging it made the whole page hang for multiple minutes.

This is the HTML on the status page.

The script HTML was stripped from the post, it should be this.
(Snippet from view-source:https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/)

  <script crossorigin="anonymous" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/polyfill/v3/polyfill.js"></script>

Hi @matthew35,

Thank you very much for reporting this and sorry to hear about the issues you saw. I have raised this internally with the team who looks after the status page and am looking into it with them.

Hi there,

I just wanted to follow up to thank you again for reporting this. A change has been made to the Status Page to prevent this impact from happening again.
