Wonder if it will do well. If something makes people feel sad/down, they're not likely to share it. So, visiting the site certainly did not inspire happiness.
If you could somehow mitigate the sad feeling from sad news thing, it may catch on and gain a decent bit of traction. Lord knows we need to be more open to discussing failure and learning from it. However, I personally do not like discussing failed startups from my past, and I wonder if I'm not part of the majority.
I totally agree with your thoughts here. Is there a better medium to share these experiences? I know there's a similar-ish subreddit [1] but I think there should be a better service for business-related things like startups, which is why I made this site!

Cool idea though. Wish you luck.
