I agree with that VCs give "thin-value" advice that don't actually propel you to success.

But this post was different. He gave a couple of good points: there's a lot of competition: competition for users, competition for press, competition for attention. And it's emotionally draining as well.

there is always a lot of competition if you in an established market. Either your product/service is obviously better than the competition or you should be in a new market without a lot of competition...

This doesn't change with what stage we are in of the boom/bust VC flow...
