The glee about Quibi's failure seems to me misguided. Startups are hard. There's no honor in applauding when they fail. To me it's impressive that people so established would undertake a project so risky. Especially considering the probable reaction if they failed.
Sure, they did a lot wrong. But only someone who's never taken that kind of risk themselves would publicly diss them for it. Anyone who's been through the startup wringer and succeeded knows how many mistakes every startup makes, and how much the outcome depends on luck.
name was horrible though...
Literally everything about the company and their product*
Seems there was some hubris involved in not trying to validate the format at all.
Honestly just seems like bad timing for a decent idea . Will probably be revived in 5 years
In your opinion, why is Quibi better than YouTube?
Startups can fail. It is what it is. But $1.5+ Billion raised? For such an idea? Before launch? This was not a moonshot idea
My exact thought. When I heard of them and how much they raised and spent while laying it all on hopes of a hugely successful launch, it already felt like failures that have been seen many times. Instead of rolling out slow to see what the consumers ACTUALLY want and care about
Also I would like to invest in whatever they choose to do next.
I think it's just sticker shock/awe given the state of the world, and knowing what else that cash "could've gone into".
Like… something that had any value whatsoever to anyone.
