- behnamoh 6y agoExactly. I don't like how CH was only introduced for iOS and follows the same annoying strategy that Gmail used before (invitation).
- malikNF 6y agoWe call it the Cartmanland[1] approach. Although I think CH is a really nice idea, that too much exclusive thing kept me away from getting an account there even if I have an invite to the platform.

- newscracker 6y agoWhat's even more annoying is that Clubhouse requires access to the entire contacts list/address book if you as a user would like to invite someone else. You can't invite someone by just entering their phone number (since a phone number is the only way to register for it). It doesn't have to be this way, but the Clubhouse team doesn't seem to care.
- rvz 6y agoClubhouse is yet to release an Android app whilst their main competitors are already there and copying them quickly to death. When the VC hype brigade knows that Clubhouse is losing steam, they will aggressively push for another company to acquire them or worse; they shut down. Might as well remove the invite system now to allow the rest of the small iOS userbase in, I guess.
