I can't even dare to imagine how demotivating it can be for the founders. I really wish YC can cater to as many startups as it can and hope the reason for this is not the growing batch sizes.

From happiness to spending quality time socially feeling important is basic need for any human being, pls correct me. Never been to Detroit but seen streets of SF and India so I thought I have enough sample size.

Here are few thoughts,

Mornings/evenings. Have yoga camps it need not be physical yoga, there are quite an extensive range of breathing exercises which can be done just be sitting

Local ppl upgrading is important, (young ppl learn and leave) it's important to educate the existing community, Conduct bootcamps, there is incredible content online, get together, have learnathons around them and help each other finish you don't need any expert to get things kickstarted

Evenings, identify local talent and organise cultural programs

Someone suggested buddha, go one step further have nothing, have an empty space where only rule is no one talks(teach meditation if possible but make it a knowledge not religion based as it leads to groupism)

The no talking space and cultural performance space can share the same compound, you can come up with a cool name for that, something where a milleneal can say I performed at that.

There is happiness in giving, organize volunteer activities like cleaning, planting trees etc etc

Considering you are building on top of zoom et all, you can try making your bandwidth costs close zero by leveraging the data feed of Zoom or Google Meet itself by being a browser extension

We did they same and are able to enhance learning experience on top of zoom/meet quite a bit by tinkering with the video,audio feed being fed to them without putting a hole in the pocket(due to bandwidth costs), in turn gains being translated to the customers and being able to add enhancements super quickly.

Congratulations once again and Good luck, from India

When we breathe, first the lungs fill up, as adults we exhale at this point. We should continue breathing until full lung capacity i.e until it pushes the diaphragm down which in turn pushes the stomach giving a sense of pot belly, if you have a pet or a child notice their stomach while they breathe.

There seems to be little confusion about chest/stomach breathing. We draw air with lungs which reside in the chest, its just that we are training our body to take deep and longer breaths we get a feeling that we are drawing with stomach

As PG says one needs child like curiosity, we need to child like breathing :)
