About a year or so back the news about clubhouse was essentially two things — famous people like Musk dropping in and then some notorious fuck ups where the special snowflake founder class were getting angry at journalists for well... journalism.
This showed two things very early - first that the app had nothing going for it. The thing driving the conversation were people not tied to clubhouse (unless you plan on kidnapping Elon he’s going to leave and do his real work). Second - that even the relatively mature early adopters weren’t able to avoid being toxic.
The author claims that clubhouse suffered from growth- no it didn’t, it suffered from being a bad app that people gave up on. It’s not that people joined it’s that the good people left.
I also find it kind of funny that he wanted to host a chat about productivity. Quite honestly joining a chat app to talk about productivity sounds like an obvious indicator of procrastination from actual productivity- it’s just not a good thing to be doing in general and people should be avoiding that type of content.
