> provided you live in the U.S.<p>Launched the Android app two months late. When everyone has already uninstalled the iOS app and their competitors have already released clones and features faster and copied them to death, after all of this Android is <i>now</i> only available in the US.<p>Had they released both at the same time last year, perhaps they would have had a chance. But even then, the invite system is <i>still</i> there 1 year on.<p>> “Our plan over the next few weeks is to collect feedback from the community, fix any issues we see and work to add a few final features like payments and club creation before rolling it out more broadly,”<p>And all the final features are <i>still</i> not feature complete with iOS. Android users are really always last supported unfortunately.<p>> "As we head into the summer and continue to scale out the backend, we plan to begin opening up even further, welcoming millions more people in from the iOS waitlist, expanding language support, and adding more accessibility features, so that people worldwide can experience Clubhouse in a way that feels native to them"<p>On the looks of the AppMagic data, invite system, competitors and the pandemic nearing to being over, by the summer they would have even less users and probably one more major competitor will be the one to send the final nail in Clubhouse's coffin.
Why anyone would want to use this is beyond my imagination. Can't see other reasons than because people hope to meet celebs. Otherwise there's nothing special or new about the concept.
Clubhouse was founded in March 15th, 2020 and has raised $110M according to crunchbase.<p>My take: If you think twitter is hot garbage, you'll be shocked at clubhouse. This is exactly why it got the funding.<p>More seriously: its a video forum where people like Elon Musk can invite Vladimir Putin to have conversations... Isn't that neat.
