Honestly the site has also gone to shit lately. Not because of the people in charge, but because of the users. So many trust fund babies with no life perspective speaking confidently with 100% belief that as long as you are making more money you are a Good Person doing Good Things.
Haha, yes. It makes nonsense if you are consistent with names. Meta and alphabet for Facebook and Google. Y combinator as a part is a stretch too. But it’s just a joke!
What does the Y stand for?
Y Combinator, a startup accelerator and venture capital firm. Also home of Hacker News.
good site, terrible grifters
