Nice to see alternative clients already. Might also be cool to combine with Jam.

funny how people can't wait to get into another abusive relationship with a social media app that will make money from their content

When I see a Mumble clone becoming pop I see another lost opportunity by the FOSS community

That points to the problem of open source: a hostility towards growth and product as critical team roles. It makes sense - OSS is an opportunity to do great engineering without constraints of a workplace. But without prioritizing product, growth, and design, OSS consumer products stagnate and suck as an end user.

Shifting from GitHub Issues as the default project management is a good prime candidate for starting to move the needle. Public-facing Clubhouse-the-project-management-app would be easier for non-eng contributions, holding open OKR processes, and having some clear ways for non developers to contribute.

Fwiw I tried to help on growth / product on one consumer OSS product I love- there just wasn’t a mechanism for someone to say yes, and there was a need for centralization to do some of the obvious next practices any startup would do. It’s easy for engineers to contribute, but ambient hostility and concern about marketing / growth / product tactics make it tough to turn rock solid OSS technology into competitive OSS products.

Hah, wait, so Clubhouse is currently iPhone only? I've been hearing a lot about it but haven't been tempted to join, but now I'm learning that I couldn't even join if I wanted to??

No one who matters would allow themselves to be caught using an Android.

It's like using a Windows laptop and calling yourself a "software engineer".

Or being a teen and not rocking $300 sneakers.
