It's a relief to see it go bankrupt. WeWork could exist against all odds thanks to funny money, not to visionary execution, or real value... compared to other shared-office solutions. Besides, if you've ever visited some of these shared spaces, you'd know that they are in decline, and by all sanity - should be in decline post-COVID when people went home and felt comfortable doing so.
Its a relief for all those owners of small shared spaces, who created the market, and were worried to see the market taken from them. It's a relief for everyone who thinks this can only work on a franchise basis. And for everyone else who felt this was going too fast in this dystopian future laid out in Neil Stephenson's Diamond Age where you have enclaves, etc.
Now I'm looking forward to seeing someone try the illustrated primer business...
