That’s long gone, especially around here. YC is YC.

It’s sad the best we could do in terms of community forum is a VC’s website.

Ycombinator is far from your average venture capital rent-seeking company. I am surprised that a person who thinks this way without added nuance would spent time on this website.

It is sad. There are definitely some talented people here but the pervasive corporate bootlicking is pretty hard to take, at times.

Certain usenet newsgroups had a similar vibe, once upon a time, but usenet couldn't solve the spam problem.
