♦️ waiting for 🧂& 🥔🍅 to see their DMs 🙃- Grapevine

Hi Grapeviners, 

This is yours truly Micheal_Scott with a massive announcement. 

We shared a feedback form with all of you yesterday. 5000 of you responded. 
We asked what you’d want Grapevine to be next. 
And you answered. 

We treat user feedback as gospel. 

Grapevine is now a dating app. Just as you asked. 

Grapevine has 10s of thousands of eligible singles. 

I personally cannot wait enough for the first Grapevine baby!

Grapevine dating is now live!

How about you?

Grapevine & DMs

Nothing but a gratitude post for the amazing community of people i got introduced to thanks to this app.

I'm just a 22 yo kid new to all the corporate jargon of savings and investments and taxes and wlb and all of that stuff, and i believe this platform has helped me tremendously to gain knowledge of

- why we should have an emergency fund and how to build it. Really needed a perspective of how it should look like and GV gave me exactly that
- how to manage investments, I've started to earn a bit well recently so definitely a huge ups on the knowledge I got on investments here.
- how to become a better swe. Some amazing folks occasionally drop in some very rare tips, love to learn more and get an insight into how exp folks think and work.

and lots of other stuff such as which startups to be aware of having shite culture, good places to join, occasional memes and everything else.

Terrific product in the making, would love to see it scale even more in coming times.

Now that i have your attention, DMs rolling out when 😀

Thankyou, team Grapevine

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

The technical founder has a mental breakdown and wants to exit the company. He's the main person who developed the software and the whole team is freaking out. The mental breakdown was caused by his personal issues and we've been struggling to straighten him out for the past 3 months. We tried again and again to help him , we even took him to a therapist and even the therapist said "it's better to keep him at the hospital for a couple of days for observation" . He didn't want to stay there because he'll be labelled as mentally unstable. Now we don't know what to do ? He wants to leave the company when we're getting clients and we're about to crack a deal with the investors . This is breaking the company apart.

What actions to take when the co-founder has a mental breakdown ?

DMs are here? Damnnn

Has anyone done anything inappropriate after the DM feature was introduced? I'm curious because these features come with a lot of risk as well. Please share your stories. Nobody DMed me yet :(

Is there any gossip floating around in grapevine DMs

Product Owner

1. If your company is hiring, let us know if you can provide a referral or can help somehow. Be ready with a fake/temporary Email Id to accept applications/resume, or ask to DM.

2. If you know any other company hiring:
Would be better if you could provide the link to the job or company or its career page.

3. If you know a stealth or very small startup hiring right now, do share someone's LinkedIn/Twitter profile whom we can reach out.

4. If you have recently interviewed at a company, try to share a bit about their expectations and interview experience.


Wherever possible, try to mention the tech stack and years of experience expected.


Happy Hunting/Helping 😃

A few years back this trend came up on Blind, where people connected to each other over a thread and planned to meet outside the app, calling it a Blind date.

Why don't we start it here again?

Let's see if we can beat bumble and shaadi.com 😂

Hello Viners, have known some of you since a very long time. So if anybody wants to say hi, would love to chat with some of you who I’ve previously exchanged messages with on comments :)

Updated the app and finally able to see my messages. Earlier it would close the app anytime I try opening messages. 

That’s it that’s the post. 

Have a great year ahead folks.

Everything under the Sun. From Econ to STEM and everything in between.

We can even have chill conversations about them.

Still can’t stop laughing on this really old meme by President_Trump - 5 months later

Old Meme throwback

Hey everyone, wanted to share a positive update about a friend I recently reconnected with on LinkedIn. A while back, I pinged Shwetha , a super talented senior SDE I knew from college. We lost touch after graduation, but I remembered how brilliant she was and wanted to see how she was doing.

To my surprise, she mentioned she was actually on a sabbatical. Apparently, the pressure of her high-paying SDE job got to her. The workload was insane, and she was dealing with a lot of stress, which manifested in some health issues - anxiety, neurological problems, and even stomach issues.

Things got so bad that her parents stepped in and convinced her to take a break. They even offered to help her transition into a teaching career, something she'd always shown an interest in. She's currently pursuing her B.Ed. while planning her wedding!

Honestly, I was a little worried at first. Leaving a successful tech career seemed like a big step back. But when I spoke to Shwetha again, her voice radiated pure joy. She's loving the challenge of her B.Ed. program, feels a lot healthier now that the stress is gone, and is super excited to start her new life as a teacher.

The whole experience made me realize that success isn't always about the fattest paycheck or the most prestigious title. Sometimes, it's about finding what truly makes you happy and fulfilled, even if it means taking an unconventional path. So happy for Shwetha and her new chapter
