> I've yet to be impressed by fastly aside from offloading itself to retail investors with another nonsensical IPO. Wow, that's quite a strong sentiment, especially given CDNs are your area of expertise [0]. I was (am?) of the opinion that Fastly is a genuine competitor to Cloudflare given their product offering, and that their engineering was more than a match (though, to be honest, I'm mostly going by the presentations their engineers have given over the years). Your statement, to me, makes it seem like Fastly is smokes and mirrors. I'm honestly surprised. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17455940 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17455940
