Comment on Snapchat has raised $485M more from 23 investors

Honestly, I am surprised Snapchat is still around. I never receive or send Snapchats to my friends any more. About one year ago me and my friends used the app on a daily basis, it was fun and you could send funny things, now it is mostly dead whenever I do check it.

It was only ever a trend. They should have sold it when they had the chance to sell to Facebook, because if the numbers are to be believed, they're not doing that well. Eventually we will see Snapchat either pivot or die.

I think you're completely wrong here. My 7th grade cousin is on it every minute of every day (battery-permitting). So are all of his friends.

I don't think you're the target audience (but I don't know how old you are, sorry!). Truth is, pre/young teens are all over Snapchat and Instagram, and I don't really see an end in sight.
