Giants will clone and make a piece of shit. Apps like this survive by creating a network of people. They do that by creating demand to join the service. How do you do that? Make it invite only, and invite a ton of high profile people and get them using and talking about it, creating FOMO.
The only people who threaten this are Facebook and Twitter. Twitter _actually_ could clone it or buy a competitor. But, look at Twitter’s history of that. They literally KILLED a TikTok by buying it and shutting it down. They are in the process of killing a live video competitor to twitch and youtube called periscope.
Don’t be afraid of The Big Bois.
- echelon 6y ago> Giants will clone and make a piece of shit. Facebook does a damn good job of sinking ships. The only two survivors I can think of are TikTok and Snapchat. And Snapchat pivoted.
- iforgetti 6y agoSerious question, what did snap chat pivot to?
- antoniuschan99 6y agoI would like to know too. Snapchat was ephermerial messages, stories, and filters? Tik tok is reels?
- shaklee3 6y agoThey made glasses with a camera in them
- busymom0 6y agoWhat did Snapchat pivot to? The only pivot I know they did was changing from disappearing messages to stories (not sure if the disappearing messages are still there?). But this wasn't exactly a pivot as far as I know because of FB copying the stories feature afterwards.
- mylons 6y agomy intuition on FB agrees with you but I can’t think of something like clubhouse that they didn’t buy or attempt to? any particular ships you’re referring to? the ones you’re referring to were social photo/video plays which FB was perfectly setup to enter. FB doesn’t have an audio product as far as i know.
