Fair enough. Though it's easy to say "Startups without the vowels". Surprised no one had any actual feedback other than the name (or maybe not).

My mind reads it as "Strips"

Disagree. Great domain name. "Startup but without the A and the U"

I will add that I misread it as "strips" (probably subconsciously assuming it had a vowel) and wondered whether it had to do with porn or comics.

and while we are at it, dont change it to "something"-ly
