The 'Always Use Browser Cache' setting tells the browser to always use the cached version of a resource, even if it's older than the version served from Cloudflare. This can improve performance but might lead to stale content. 'Cache Everything' tells Cloudflare to cache all resources, which can improve performance but may also introduce caching inconsistencies. Choose the setting that best suits your website's content and caching needs. Always consider cache invalidation strategies.
