defun 🔸 comments on Why Experienced Founders Should Still Consider Incubators (and Why I Might Go Through My Own)

Would you consider applying to YC?

I imagine it only makes sense for certain types of non-profits, like OWID.

[Joey🔸]

Yes but after founding to give or EF type programs.

It seems like they haven’t accepted any non-profit since 2022, around the time Garry Tan became YC’s CEO. Garry has been very vocal against EA (specially AI Safety) on Twitter.
