Anything specific you're referring to?
- minimaxir 12y agoIt mostly started happening after Mailbox's waitlist of hundreds of thousands and subsequent buyout from Dropbox during the wait list period. I saw this article this morning and it made me raise my eyebrows: http://www.businessinsider.com/the-league-app-has-a-75000-person-waitlist-2015-2 http://www.businessinsider.com/the-league-app-has-a-75000-pe... A waitlist isn't inherently impossible for startups; I'd expect a few hundred at most, but 75,000? EDIT: All email clients have the same name. :p
