It's way easier to connect and talk, with a better interface and profiles, there is inline image and video support, emoji support, responsive design for mobile...

IRC is dying and people are switching to Slack, but Slack is not here to replace IRC, is annoying to enter a separate login and email for each group, and it's more complicated to do simple things, they said they have no intention to satisfy that audience[1].

Re:Tell HN: YC W16 rejection emails are out on Wednesday October 28, 2015 @06:31PM (#10467878)

Got rejected too, but it was expected as a solo founder, with a prototype only on Brazil when I applied. What I'm working on http://www.octorb.com/ Well I'm done with VCs and all that stuff for now... Time to focus 100% on the users.
