Author @joypbuilds argues the primary difficulty of being a solo founder is the absence of high‑agency peers who can give strong feedback. In the same thread, Julian Weisser promotes a Solo Founders Program (published 2026‑07‑28) positioning solo founding as the future; the program offers a 3‑month SF residency, one‑on‑one support, and $100K in funding.
Author @joypbuilds states the hardest part of solo founding is lacking other high‑agency individuals to build alongside who provide actionable, high‑quality feedback.

Most people think starting a company without a co-founder is a bad idea.
We believe the opposite: solo founding will be the default way great companies get started.
Applications are now open for the Solo Founders Program.
3 months in SF: "solo, together" + 1:1 support + $100K
