It’s always fun to read the original Dropbox YC application. So well thought out and written.

Are there any founders from recent batches than can still vouch whether YC is still worth it?

With insane SF rent prices, one has to burn a big chunk of that 120k in 3 months by just trying to stay alive.

Add that to the fact that YC batches are pretty big right now. Do you get much in return other than the YC bragging rights?

Would love to learn about the experiences of existing/past founders.
