Enjoy your freedom
Probably flagged by readers who are tired of this drama (not one of the flaggers, btw). In the thread you were saying something like 'you can't find any reason why your ramen profitable start-up received such a tepid response from YC and you got the advice to come back with a co-founder' [other than the implied systemic misogyny].
Sorry, but that just not an acceptable response to a rejection. Startup accelerators do not exist to empower women founders, make the world a better place or other such grand idea, they exists to make money and you failed to convince one such accelerator that you can make money for them. It's as simple as that. Biases might affect their decision process, but that's a problem for their business, not yours.
Edit: here's the thread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34267515
Well said indeed. We're finally getting back to the unvarnished truth, it's only returns on capital that truly matters.
Just say no unless they have an immediate and definitive way to bolster your efforts and energy. Life is too short. Intense focus is critical to success.

Are there any other places folks congregate to complain about recruiting on LinkedIn? I am working on a hiring-support-as-service platform to assist small companies and these kinds of sour grapes would be invaluable. Thanks in advance!

Comfortably estimating 90% of all the foreigners I know are leaving (or have already left) by the end of the year. End of energy and dynamism, possibly forever.
