It's really good to read those stories.

I applied twice (once alone, once with a really amazing co-founder) and it felt like applying to a large faceless corporation, both times.

Automatic rejection after 30 days with zero feedback.

Kind of sucky, to be honest.

I'd just love to hear that the idea was shit, the application was shit, that my face was ugly, or anything, really.



Probably hard to give valuable feedback on tens of thousands of rejected applications.
