The problem with Clubhouse is the product sucks. The idea of listening to party-line style conversations isn't totally insane. Hypothetically good content could be created this way, and it seems that happened at least a few times. But the product was and is just awful. The discovery function sucks, it's just a crappy stream of mostly low-value hustle culture nonsense that feels like mid-2000's junk mail subject lines. There's no way (that actually works) to change that to something that guides you to decent content. There's an alternate version of this story where they had a really great technical founding team that reacted to the influx of users and hype by really rapidly iterating on the product and making everyone have a great experience. Instead everyone signed up via exclusive invite and spent a few rounds trying to figure out why they fuck they should care and eventually gave up because they shouldn't.
