An app crafted with no clear IT vision but a copycat ... good riddance

waste* of money

[@aryabhat_online]

As Bjp could not cross 400 twitter got another 5 years to operate in india. Koo has no policy to stall govt interference. It would have been a BJP mouthpiece.

Koo was great . I am it's user or u can say I was. Animation in koo was great and theme as well was great . But USP was missing and they had a coin system which looks useless to users and irritating as well.

India tried Hard to Copy from China..but Failed Miserably...😂😂😂😂😂

[@NEERAJKUMAR-iy9kn]

Mostly all Indian IT startups are equal to shit and are frauds...

[@sunnyy6295]

Bro. You can't say this. If we did the china way, koo would have been a blockbuster. But we can't just ban global social apps like China did with Twitter, TH-cam, Insta, Fb, Google, etc. Compare with logic a bit. We are not a communist dictator.

The same happened with the Hike Messenger app.

[@stennetmang]
