It’s too bad that all these post-Twitter platforms seemingly need to reach critical mass to stay alive. None appear to have gone in with a business plan that allowed for organic growth over time — they banked on “rapid consumer adoption”. Virality or bust. 🙄
But, at the end of the day, our service is not growing fast enough to become a real business or a significant platform. A consumer business, at its core, needs to show rapid consumer adoption and we have not managed to find the right product combination to make it happen.
