This is from April but popped up on Reddit today and I thought it was worth sharing. " A whole new world of innovation is happening," writes Sankaranarayanan, "yet so-called unicorns (like BYJU'S) steal the attention, money, talent and skew everything."

"Instead, we will see more startups working on freemium gamified apps for language learning and more niche online learning platforms."
