People working at YC startups, and still cribbing about YouTube ads.

More and more people are buying Premium to stop seeing their ads. Ankur Warikoo is the only guy who made more money talking about his startup than the startup itself. Adtiya Kacchve tells folks that he can upskill them, but still couldn’t upskill himself to even make decently looking ads. TikTok videos look better than his ads. Drop your roast comments down below.

Hi Grapevine, I'm Arnav, Director of Engg at Jio Cinema. I previously exited my startup to Scaler. Some of you may know me from ScalerPod. I've also led engineering teams at Zomato & Target. Here to chat with you about my journey in startups, leading engineering teams, and products at scale, among other things. Ask me your question. I'll be back at 8 pm and begin answering!

Showing 3 ads every 10 mins to users who have paid for subscriptions is silly and stupid. They are running out of ideas and happy to see Hotstar content moving to JioCinemas. Put an end to this nonsense

So I just exited my first venture, raised some money from pedigree foreign players, almost died 3 times and finally exited decently. Discounting 2 years of covid it was a good 4 year journey. I am thinking to create like a 0 to 1 course having everything from idea validation, basics of branding, how to file TDS and GST yourself, getting first clients and scaling to 1. What does the junta think of it? And what would be a good price one would be willing to pay?

Family plan is up by 58% 🤕

Has anyone applied to YC? If yes what was your experience, what all have you done before applying to YC? What was your market segment? Any other stories and gyaan related to applying and working with YC please!

Every time a startup faces backlash from community or users, the founders just go to YourStory to white wash their image. Saw OLA's founder Bhavish oozing gyan and patriotism, Zomato's founder Deep come and answer cute simple questions and now Mamaearth before IPO. They used to do candid reporting but long gone are those days

Which subscriptions are worth subscribing to? Can be of any category Food, Grocery, Shopping, Music, newsletter, Books, fitness, etc. I'll start: * Zomato gold(I save 15k+ per year) * Amazon Prime
