Companies that have been growing sustainably and building innovative technology that reduces costs 10x (in a recession) get a lot of attention. Especially if they are turning a profit without any accounting tricks.
Companies that were never going to be profitable are having problems raising money now and sounding the horns. There are a lot of those companies, especially on HN, but please don't categorically dismiss my experience as a fantasy.
My comment is and still stands: if you are making something truly amazing then you will almost always find investors (which isn't a good metric). If you were making something amazing 6 months ago you would have gotten more money on more favorable terms. This market isn't easier or friendly at all - investor appetites have changed.
It's like saying, if you are building the next google (early days) you can still easily get cash. Sure but not as much as say 6 months ago. It isn't easier than any time in the last decade - 6 months ago people didn't even do due diligence before the wrote massive checks.
