> Lot of the companies featured in the marketplace is what I'm referring...

This isn't actually what you said in your original post, but sure, let's breakdown this too. Under "Featured apps" there's Mailchimp, Dropbox, Google Drive, Bench Accounting, Ramp, and Render. Dropbox is the only one I recognize as a YC company.

I pay attention to a lot of things. What do you pay attention to?

Do you work for YC? Why do you care so much?

No, I don't work for YC. I do get value from this site and would prefer it not be a cesspool of ignorant conspiracy theories when possible.

so its a conspiracy that Docusign is down 80% from ATH as are many YC backed IPO stocks?

Just open up a chart and have a go at the numerous tickers YC is involved with. Are those stocks that you would trust your life savings with and that its a conspiracy that they are struggling with potential problems to capital and liquidity?

If you are going to simp for YC at least have skin in the game

"...this seems like something to send more paying customers to its network of YC backed businesses."

Is a baseless conspiracy. Back it up with facts! If you can, we're all here to listen. Accusing someone of being a simp because they think your argument is baseless and weak is not a great way to strengthen your argument.

Again, why are you simping for YC when you aren't even part of it, an investor, or a shareholder in any of its derivative stocks?

I don't know why who or what I simp for is on trial here. You have no idea what I own stock in. Maybe my big simpin' is a perfectly valid repsonse? Simpin' aint easy, that's for sure. For the sake of ending this inane argument, let's say I simp YC supes hard, but it's for personal reasons I'd rather not share.

Now that we have that out of the way, do you have any facts to hold up your baseless claims?
