> I was thinking just yesterday about how Clubhouse's strategy may (who knows really) have backfired, it seems to me by betting on FOMO-manufacturing they just gave time for others (like Twitter Spaces) to catch up before they filled a niche.
Yeah, it was essentially that kind of mistake. Like, it appears that nobody learned from Fb's mistakes (letting Orkut get a toehold in brazil before they moved there).
I sortof exaggerated, they did have an Android app but basically invested nothing in it. I remember that just before FB cloned them (in literally every place they could) they were talking about how iOS was all that mattered, as those users are richer.
They didn't seem to get that you either need to show user growth or revenue growth, and failed at both.
Yeah it was pretty well documented that Snap's behavior on Android (literally taking a screenshot of the viewfinder) was way worse than on iOS, and features like e.g. video would always come out on iOS before Android
