Status has raised $17M in seed and Series A funding led by @AbstractVC, @generalcatalyst and @usv to let anyone step inside their favorite stories, become famous, and live a million different lives. We quietly launched Status last year and grew to over 1 million users in 19 days

best advice to consumer founders is to build for your teenage self ( as @nikitabier said)

if you're not a consumer utility, literally the only way to have a strong d30 and beyond is to have: 1. real people making great content or 2. real (online or irl) friends on your platform. multiplayer is the real unlock. we're doing it in our own weird way.
