If Clubhouse starts incorporating virality and algorithmic amplification, all this might change. If I had to guess, I'd say people would then flee it the way they flee from here. I guess undue media attention plus the Clubhouse growth team may well cooperate to make that happen.

Also: Tech people are upset at existing tech criticism/reporting. While there are notable exceptions, the real problem is most tech reporting HAS NOT BEEN properly critical and too often focuses on trivia and remains superficial. Tech has NOT been criticized/scrutinized enough.

"Someone said a wrong thing on Clubhouse, call the fact-checkers" and Clubhouse's own growth team—and VC's hoping for exponential returns—are in a symbiotic relationship. Loser: the substantive discussion on how to deal with a profound, amazing AND terrifying historic transition.

Right now their "discovery" sucks and they seem to think this is something they need to "fix" and when/if they do, they'll probably start on the inevitable slide down that path.

But how do you even decide what's a "fact" to intervene in real-time, ephemeral conversations? And what do you get out of it? I cannot imagine being able to convince too many people, and I can totally imagine scenarios in which this both backfires and creates a weird certainty.

But not from fact-checkers! I don't disagree people change their views. But it's not some outside process fact-checkers can elbow their way in most of the time.
