This is far from unique about Yahoo! too. So many services I loved using have gone under because they were VC funded and, though successful, useful, etc., weren't able to "eat the world" and so were shuttered.
I keep waiting for Twitter to go under that way. I think the Trump White House may have bought them some time, but they're just too damn top heavy to stay afloat.
