Solo founder here. YC S10. We have 8 people now, are well funded and making good revenues. It might not have worked for you but that doesn't mean it can't be done.
That doesn't change my advice to folks to find a co-founder.
Right, but you're not advocating the "stop the world" and do nothing until they do find a co-founder, are you? I guess that's my point: a solo-founder isn't necessarily somebody who intends to stay a solo-founder, but are likely someone who just hasn't found their co-founder(s) yet. And I, for one, would not advocate stopping everything until you find that person (or persons).

Congrats! Absolutely it can be done. And absolutely I failed to pull it off by myself. That doesn't change my advice to folks to find a co-founder.
