Yeah, Clubhouse was one that had popped up during Covid. It was essentially a social app that was like a big conference call, the VCs decided it was worth billions, and then people remembered that conference calls suck.

But it was exclusive! It was only on iOS! And you had to be invited! But you could listen to Elon give a TED talk for five minutes!

And then I think Twitter took their idea and it wasn’t worth poo poo after that.

What was that one new social media that was hyped as the big new thing several years ago? I recall a ton of people signed up and then never used it, then it just disappeared. Not the Google one, it was after that.

There was a trend of trying to do conference calls as social media. Twitter did "spaces" (does that feature still exist?) and there was Call-in which was geared toward doing like podcasts that were radio call-in shows where listeners could be allowed to join in but stuff was recorded and accessible later like podcast episodes. A bunch of politics twtter podcast people were using it for a bit and then it kinda quietly disappeared.

Livejournal is still up believe it or not that's where George RR Martin posts

But around the late 2000s it became a place for Russian citizens to post freely about their dissatisfaction with the Russian govt so it got bought by an Oligarch so they could ban all of the anti Russia dissent

Seriously look it up

Has any other one given you such leeway in making your profile page a complete hellscape of customization and embeds? Because that simultaneously feels like the apex and nadir of social media sites.

It’s like Reddit but worse because everyone on there has to sign up with a work email address so the user base is self selected for that and everyone seems to sign their posts with how much money they make. And they allegedly make more than me so gently caress them I wanna kick their asses too.
