Laserak (@TrueLaserak) reported@Pirat_Nation This coinciding with Cloudflare having more issues than ever is just a coincidence huh?

Ryan (@rharrisai) reported@iruletheworldmo It clearly isn’t. You know what all these firms who mass-fired their workers have in common? They all were struggling in one way or another. Coinbase was at record low revenue figures, Cloudflare had the same revenue problem and their margins were shrinking due to massive AI investments…

(\/)atri}{ (@ascannertoddly) reported@ryanels Gee thanks 😝 rofl. To create a temporary Cloudflare tunnel on macOS using Homebrew, you can use the command: brew install cloudflare/cloudflare/cloudflared followed by cloudflared tunnel --url This will set up a tunnel that routes traffic from Cloudflare to your local service on port 443.

🔻agitprop + absurdity🔻 (@agtprpnabsrdty) reportedCloudflare terminates one fifth of workforce to satisfy automation narrative High growth and record revenue fail to protect employees from a margin compression crisis masked as a technological evolution. Redundancy by algorithm: The leadership of the connectivity cloud company announced the elimination of over eleven hundred roles to prepare for the agentic AI era. Founders Matthew Prince and Michelle Zatlyn claim that internal AI usage increased by six hundred percent over the last three months. This move reduces the global headcount by twenty percent across engineering, finance, and marketing departments. Executives categorize these cuts as a strategic restructuring for an autonomous future. They claim the reduction is unrelated to individual performance or short-term financial pressure. The accounting of exploitation: Financial records reveal that quarterly revenue surged by thirty-four percent to reach nearly six hundred forty million dollars. Despite this growth, the organization remains unable to achieve GAAP profitability and reported a sixty-two million dollar loss from operations. Gross margins fell from nearly seventy-six percent to seventy-one percent within a single year. The narrative of AI-driven efficiency provides a shield for deteriorating unit economics and rising stock-based compensation. Market experts analyze the failure of the organization to convert record labor productivity into sustainable profit. Reliability at risk: Cloudflare functions as a critical layer of global internet infrastructure that hosts approximately twenty percent of all websites. The decision to purge a fifth of its staff follows multiple multi-hour service outages that disrupted global connectivity this year. Stripping away the senior engineers and site reliability experts who maintain these systems introduces operational fragility. Autonomous agents can triage incoming tickets but lack the institutional memory required to diagnose complex configuration drifts. The company bets the integrity of the internet on unproven software while discarding the human expertise that actually built the platform. The price of departure: The organization provides departing workers with full base pay through the end of 2026 and vests their equity through mid-August. Management waived one-year cliffs for recent hires to ensure they receive a portion of their promised compensation. This severance package represents an attempt to maintain a reputation for benevolence while executing a mass displacement of labor. It serves as a final settlement for those who contributed to record-breaking revenue before being replaced by scripts. The generosity of the exit does not change the reality of the expulsion. The board prioritizes the vanity of the agentic era over the reality of a compressing margin. An enterprise that successfully automates its intelligence will eventually find its executives to be the most expensive remaining inefficiencies.

cloudtechbigunk (@cloudtechbigunk) reportedGood and I legitimately like Cloudflare as a competent DNS provider. Their DR options aren’t optimal but they’ve been strong in helping proxy interconnected multi-cloud apps. Now I know Zscaler better not think of layoffs because their customer service could use some help.

Timmi Arno (@timmi_arno) reported$NET (Cloudflare) just beat earnings AND lost 24% in the same day. ✅ Revenue +34% YoY ✅ EPS beat ✅ Guidance raised ❌ Fired 1,100 people (20% of staff) Wall Street saw one thing: a company scrambling to catch up on #AI. From my perspective, these big moves often come with lots of problems in the company structure, as Coinbase showed us.

Evan Liu (@evan123liu) reportedThe software quality is really trending down. Right after Canvas got hacked Discord is also down. Last year there was also a bunch of issues with AWS and Cloudflare. Plus, the amount of bugs on Apple's iOS or MacOS also significantly increased in recent years. I wonder if this is due to the increasing prevelance of vibecoding that caused so many software developes to not even check the code before they ship into production...

Stan Tscherenkow (@stantscherenkow) reportedCloudflare cut 1,100 jobs at record revenue. Internal AI usage went up 600% in three months. The CEO did not call it a layoff. He called it the "agentic AI era." Translation: the work some of those people were doing is now done by something that does not get tired, ask for a raise, or take vacation. If your company is still arguing whether AI affects headcount, you are reading the wrong book. The ones who already moved are not announcing it. They are quietly cutting and reinvesting. The hire who is not shipping in three months when AI does in three days is not a hire problem. You hired against a job that no longer exists.

Anthony DiBenedetto (@AnthonyDiBs) reported$NET is a good reminder that “AI beneficiary” is not enough. Cloudflare reported a strong Q1 on the surface. Revenue grew 34% to $639.8M. Non-GAAP operating income was $73.1M. Free cash flow was $84.1M. Full-year guidance was raised. But the stock still got hit. Why? Because the market looked past the headline growth and focused on the quality of that growth. Gross margin fell to 72.8%, down from 77.1% last year. Q2 revenue guidance implies growth slowing to around 30%. And Cloudflare announced it would cut roughly 1,100 employees as it reorganizes around an “agentic AI-first operating model.” That is the tension. Cloudflare may absolutely benefit from AI. More agents. More traffic. More security needs. More developer activity. More edge workloads. But AI is not just a demand tailwind. It can also be a margin test. More infrastructure demand means more investment, more compute cost, and more pressure to prove the economics scale. The bigger point: The market is moving beyond “who has AI exposure?” It wants to know who can turn AI demand into durable, profitable growth. That is the Cloudflare debate.

荷兰小博 (@DutchPhD) reported4. 💼 Cloudflare Discloses AI Has Eliminated 1,100 Jobs — Revenue Hits an All-Time High Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince acknowledged during the earnings call that the company has used AI automation to replace approximately 1,100 roles over the past year (mainly in customer support and internal operations), while quarterly revenue surpassed $2 billion for the first time. Prince framed it as "natural attrition plus no backfill" rather than layoffs, but the figure stands as the starkest quantified case to date of AI replacing white-collar jobs.

Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz) reported@richardartoul I'm trying to get details if it happened to other services. If yes: probably Coinbase was right that other AWS AZs also had issues, and perhaps AWS updates are wrong? If no: eagerly awaiting Coinbase's postmortem on what went wrong. I'm trying to gather data, that's all. I try to avoid sensationalism or ambulance chasing - it's annoying and leads to nowhere. My goal is to get to a more precise and fair writeup, as I suspect Coinbase will have no real incentive to release a transparent postmortem (that we could all learn from) that eg Cloudflare would already be halfway finishing

Xavier Rivera (@XavierRiveraX) reportedCloudflare cut 1,100 jobs in its first major company-wide layoff. Record revenue the same quarter. CEO Matthew Prince says AI efficiency gains made support roles unnecessary.

Ankit Jaiswal (@itsankitjaiswal) reportedCloudflare just laid off 1,100 people. That's 20% of their entire company. Not performance issues. Not cost-cutting. Their exact words: "agentic AI-first operating model." AI agents are now doing the jobs. The humans got the memo. These were the jobs everyone said were safe.

Memstagram (@Memstagram_com) reported@shiri_shh Cloudflare firing 20% of staff through email and watching the stock drop 25% is the exact kind of “agentic AI era” signal that immediately moves workforce-impact contracts.

Stone (@EyesOfTakeda) reportedIm not sure authenticity, but it seems to align with global movement for internet governance. Korea is also part of GOSRN which is a digital safety network between UK, AUS, IRE, CZE, FRA, & FIJ. Cloudflare should not be trusted. Decentralized communities & programs are necessary
