I just thought about Clubhouse the other day. It's as if we have entered a time in which there are one-hit-wonders in social media apps, just like in pop music.

I just thought about Clubhouse the other day. It's as if we have entered a time in which there are one-hit-wonders in social media apps, just like in pop music. I think turning their app into this shielded walled garden has been their demise from the beginning. I heard about the app, but it wasn't really enough to get me to download it. Might've been different if they had some decent content-first public interface that has some selection of stuff to offer, to get me more interested. I'm also not a fan of this ad pattern of making access to the app seem like an exclusive privilege by being invite-only, it feels like a worn-out trick.
