Insta peeps have entered and ruin quora.. It was a writing platform which now has become photo+writing platform. Humans are the culprits they need validation everywhere. Vulgarity bhi hogai hai quora mai...aise log har jgah ghusre hai. This really ruining peace of common folks who used to love quora.

Ppl like enthu being active on grapevine not in quora

I remember being so active on that platform. It still gets me most impressions across all social platforms (but who even cares)

What do you think led to Quora's downfall?- Grapevine

Is there any logic or reason as to why platforms allow liking your own posts?

If so, should people do it? Does it help in anyway?

Product question : why can someone "like" their own posts?

Another Quora in making? Cringe on Linkedin is getting out of hands

A lot of people keep ranting on GV, ‘don’t make GV another Quora..’

What does this mean? What was wrong with Quora

What happened to Quora?

Was curious what are the best apps/products that are no more around, but were great at one point. I feel like there might be some insights here if everybody chimes in, maybe something we need to bring back alive?

This question is posed to you by Peter Thiel in his book "Zero to One"

My answer to this is:

We are in a big cycle where India will become everything great. Last 8 years have taught me that we are in the greatest momentum bet of this country's life time. So, don't rule out India. 

Build in India. Invest in India. Believe in India. 

There are many in this community that are complete nihilists and supremely bearish towards India's prospects. And let me tell you, for once in this country's history, being a complete maximalist on India is a bet that you will not regret. 

There will be a new generation of millionaires and billionaires that will be minted on new industries. So keep hustling and this country will unleash great dividends for you and your legacy.

[Thread] What important truth do very few people agree with you on?

Indians killed quora with cringe questions. The same cringe is now surfacing on grapevine too.  
  
 To be fair, many Indians moved away from facebook and are now increasingly not using insta for the same reason.

I don’t know anyone who even recalls what it is or was. Possibly the fastest rise and decline for anything in the tech era.  Do you use Threads ?

Is Threads dead? ☠️

The number of rants I have on this platform, had they been anywhere else (social media or real life), I would have definitely lost my job, friends, and followers.

How is Nikita Bier somebody to be regarded? Why is he so famous on X?
For making the same app twice, both times being able to sell it off just at the right time, before it becomes irrelevant ultimately (because typically school/college confessions pages are like that, shortlived, like ask.fm) 

And this then in turn got VCs unnecessarily excited about this space, couple of investments globally in lookalike apps in other geographies. 
What a scam, this entire thing. Fool me twice!

How does this app plan to monetize?

TL;DR

We stay on the internet nowadays. I am doing so since 2009. From orkut to fb, Twitter to insta, WhatsApp to Tg and Quora to Reditt.

If u look closely all are Western apps, few entrepreneurs tried to make the Indian SM app but it turned cringe n toxic like hood etc.

I was silent reader here for 3m, then started interacting actively 5m back. Saw this platform evolving from 0 to 1. Hell a lot of improvement.

But what I loved maximum is how beautifully people help each other, from referral to rant, Job opening to layoff, CTC discussion to crazy comparison, love to hate, left to right, PM to Sde, Whitefield to Koramangala and what not...

We have everything on a tap from food to cab and dating to matrimonial still we are the unhappiest gen.

GrapeVine( thanks to @Micheal_Scott )kinda platform is helping to kill that loneliness and toxicity of one's life.

Always there to discuss and talk about semiconductors, ai, economy, philosophy, marketing, music n memes!

🥂 Cheers and have a nice day.

Keep smiling ☺️

The Indian microblogging site Koo has shut down. Reminds me of a conversation with an ex-founder along the lines of “Startups are a hard business. But even within startups, social networks are the hardest businesses to build” 
What do you think of Koo

Koo is now shuts down. Thoughts?

Snapchat grew to more than 400 million users, the company announced in its third-quarter earnings report.

Ecommerce platform Dukaan has just laid off 60 people. Sudden move on Monday. 

Is the platform struggling to get users and monetise? so much funding they have.

Dukaan laid off over 60 people

He said “aap sab ko marana pdega”.. you guys have to work your ass off.

In one of the townhall at Koo, Co founder mayank bidawatka said “ham sab ko mrana pdega agr koo ko grow krna h” what’s your take on this statement?

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hey Folks, I thought I should do an AMA specially after yesterday’s rumours that I have been laid off from Grapevine - this isn’t true 😂. It is however true that I have been PIPed and have a much reduced role now xD 

To be serious: Happy to answer any Grapevine questions that you may have. Features, ideas, questions on why we do what we do welcome - I’ll answer what I can! 

Cheers!
