Interesting: Announcing Cloudflare Email Service’s private beta

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/10/06

Hopefully this new service will shit less than what other mail services have become: [Wayback/Archive] Announcing Cloudflare Email Service’s private beta

Via [WaybackSave/Archive] @levelsio on X: “Cloudflare today launched their own Email Sending service VERY cool, because by default every email service we use for sending for our websites gets acquired by private equity or IPOs and goes to shit It happened to MailChimp, then SendGrid, then Postmark It’s just the nature …”

Cloudflare today launched their own Email Sending service

VERY cool, because by default every email service we use for sending for our websites gets acquired by private equity or IPOs and goes to shit

It happened to MailChimp, then SendGrid, then Postmark

It’s just the nature of the beast, it’s not a good business to be in, but it’s essential for any website to be able to send emails

@Cloudflare
is so big ($75B) that for them it can just be a service as part of their general offering

Because in 2025 maybe email sending should just be a feature, not a company

P.S. please let me use Cloudflare Email with a basic JSON API, preferrably SendGrid/Postmark-compatible
