Top Tweets for #WhyYC
I applied to YC when I was 21 and it changed my career trajectory forever.
From then on, I knew I would always be a founder.
Pursuing growth > comfort can feel risky but YC makes it all worth it. Plus you join the best community of risk takers in the world ๐

A lot of people wonder if @ycombinator is worth it. Well, Iโve not found a single YC founder who didnโt find value in the program.
So, go for it and apply now! ๐๐

YC continues to be the best thing that happened to our company. Here's our @ycombinator story and why you should totally apply to S23! #whyyc https://t.co/5UA9lvxCXN
Only one day left to apply to @ycombinator !
Whether you're building a dev tool, blockchain, or hardware startup, I'd encourage you to apply.
What we're doing at @WaspLang wouldn't be the same without the amazing YC community #whyyc

Why YC? @ycombinator is life changing. It's your startup qualifying for the Olympics with a global audience watching. YC is a family with collective brainpower and connections beyond anything you could imagine. YC is what every startup needs. https://t.co/Z6RKxI9vxu #whyyc
Highly recommend applying to yc, no clue where we'd be without it. Just apply. You can get in too.
I was 21 when we applied late with no recommendations and an unlaunched, terrible idea. And we didn't go to prestigious schools.
Happy to give advice if needed :)

YC is truly an amazing place, and there are so many facets that come together to make it what it is.
When you become a @ycombinator founder, you join an incredible community that will help you and root for you - for life. #whyyc

I get tons of DMs from founders asking if they should do YC and why. #whyyc
I almost always say yes and it changed my life.
Here's the long version my YC story:
Two years before I got into YC I was working at a gas station as a maintenance tech. Doing tradework (plumbing, electrical, pump maintenance, etc).
Right after the gas station career I got a job at a no-name software consulting company and I started building random apps and trying to make money online.
I watched and read so much content from YC during this time and even did YC startup school.
I ended up getting into YC (story for another time) and it changed my life. I've made so many friends, my ambition has 10x'd, i've become a much better founder.
YC backing you is having a group that is 100% aligned with you as a founder and that's a super power.
The group partners have helped me through some of the hardest times as a founder.
If you get the chance to do YC, do it.
If you're on the fence when it comes to applying to @ycombinator by Friday's deadline, check out https://t.co/OF4gOK6SWj & learn how 4,000 startups have benefited from YC.
The relationships, the advice, and the capital (first money in) gained from YC were critical for us. #whyyc

.@DruhFarrell asks why city is contemplating Olympic bid when the fall municipal budget previews suggest there could be service cuts coming to transit and other city services? #yyccc #Calgary2026
No Why. Slim on details. Assumes international sponsorship, domestic sponsorship, governments in order to make proposal work. Tickets sales are 365million. Job claims 2200. But may not be full time permanent jobs. #WHYyc #yyccc #taketheofframp.
Further to the 9th reason to #taketheofframp on Sept 11...A no-build or no risk #Olympics won't create legacy or reason to be a host city. A riskier option is to tie capital projects to #Calgary2026 and risk cost overruns and more debt. #WHYyc #yyccc

@CBCScott @yescalgary2026 Whatโs $1.2B more between friends who can benefit? #WHYyc? #yyccc #Calgary2026
