Wow what an awful take from PG.

  Why do you think it's awful? Many successful startup ideas initially seemed like bad ideas. Many failed startups also initially seemed like bad ideas. Many failed startups actually were bad ideas. (Some were bad execution or just bad luck.) But it's hard to tell, at the beginning, whether the idea is bad or just looks bad. Often you have to try it to find out.

    Because it ignores that this whole idea was born from toxic hustle culture, relied on skirting union laws to stay afloat, did things like pay spouses $6 million US for voice overs, and blamed it on a pandemic where most other forms of media have thrived instead of owning up to ineptitude.
