Thanks for chiming in here. Unrelated, I saw that Vercel is ramping up hiring for designers. I’ve always worked in consumer-facing design spaces (banking, travel, etc.) and want to make a change toward something more dev-oriented like Vercel, but I worry being told that “I don’t have the right experience”. Does Vercel hire folks looking to change the industry they design for? I’m a senior IC in design systems, so the extent of what I design for devs is mainly documentation sites.
Building a beautiful and fast Web experience needs to feel myspace-code-easy (or as Rich Harris puts it: it has to be fun!). I think ultimately that's what makes the Web win long term. It's open and accessible.
The best way to contribute to this mission is to come in with a fresh mindset, passion and big ambitions. Please reach out: https://vercel.com/careers
I'd be a bit nervous right now if I built my business / app on that.

If I were Vercel, absolutely would not sell either. They aren't like "Netlify" and positioned to be truly the goat of serverless.
What do you mean by this?
Cloudflare seems to be disciplined about releasing solid lower-level platform building blocks first (e.g. durable objects), and leaving the "developer go-to framework for their advanced Worker stuff" to be built on top later.
Seems like a smart approach to me, but I agree the space is moving fast and even though they release stuff at a pretty rapid pace, it never seems fast enough for early adopters
I think they are waiting for someone else to build for it which is IMO the completely wrong approach for the dream of the serverless app. You got to own the full stack including software.
I can easily see Vercel becoming the pretty much only go-to in this space just from the developer trust they have created with Next (and now Svelte). The general getting started experience between the two serverless providers is night and day.
One is where do I begin / how should I do this (cloudflare).
The other is simply code... and... go! (vercel)
I'll be all in on whatever Rich makes there. Been waiting for a solid Cloudflare Worker framework for literally years bridging front-end and back-end. Instead, we got Pages (which is cool, just boring for the fun stuff).
