Impressive tech execution, but the format has fundamental scaling issues. Clubhouse lost 93% of users from peak. WhatsApp sends 7 billion voice messages daily - but those are DMs, not feeds. The math doesn't work: reading is 50-80% faster than listening. You can skim 50 text posts in 100 seconds. 50 voice posts? 15 minutes. Voice works async 1-to-1. You built Twitter where every tweet is a 30-second voicemail nobody has time to listen to. The transcription proves it - users will read, not listen. Which makes this "text feed with worse UX" | ||

Speaking > typing for creation. Reading > listening for consumption. Talk to create, read to consume. | ||
