I could never have gotten a co-founder. In the first place, I didn't know anyone. I had about zero technical skill, and knew I still had to develop biz dev / marketing skills, so I would have been embarrassed to front myself as a "non-technical founder" with a great idea.
After several years of learning the tools, I have more to offer, and I'm much more prepared to evaluate a potential co-founder. But that's only because I HAVE been doing it alone.
