I am one of those critics, but I never used Tailwind. A layoff of that magnitude is horrific, but if what they are describing as their business model is true, they really really need to rethink it. I wonder what the size of their marketing team is like, and if they were involved in the layoffs. Seems like they need some help there. I found the "downvote" spam in that thread, for reasonable posts, to be quite off-putting, and that led me to my remarks.

The 75% of the team is 3 out of 4 developers. There are no marketing.

Left are the three owners of tailwind, one engineer and one ops+customer service + partner sails person.
