One of the things that i find strange and sometimes annoys me about HN is that every idea needs to be a startup... Why? Your idea could also become a collective or a non-profit the very least...
- coolhoody 4y agoMy plan was non-profit, corporate sponsorship, plus voluntarily member donations. Used the term 'startup' just because it's short for 'big complex IT project based on some assumptions'. Besides my own issues, I simply found too many holes in my original idea — where this idyllic utopia could go wrong. I still keep the idea on the heap — currently evaluating an idea of professionally supervised chat groups. But I'd be glad if someone steals the idea before I find every way it could lead to the extinction of koalas and collapse of the Hilbert space.
- FerociousTimes 4y agoCould you please elaborate more on the business idea that you have if you don't mind?

- derbOac 4y agoI completely agree that there are many options outside of startups, even for business ventures, and I wish this were discussed more. However, this is a forum associated with a startup funding institution, so it's not that strange to me there would be that bias here.
