This post is a long-ass “told you so” and honestly, I’m here for it. I too had an Ello account and thoroughly enjoyed its minimalist nature.

For a lot of businesses, raising VC money is a mistake because rapid growth just isn't the right strategy. VC is expensive - you give up a lot of equity every round and are betting that your ever shrinking slice will be bigger because the whole pie grew faster. That is a very tough target to hit.
