Facebook Again is Stealing a Feature from the Clubhouse Application
In a very usual move, Facebook started preparing a competing service for the Clubhouse voice chat rooms application, after the great popularity it gained recently, which prompted Mark Zuckerberg himself to take a closer look at the upraising platform.
Facebook always copies the applications and features that spread among people and launches similar features in his apps.
Perhaps the stories feature from Snapchat and short videos from Tik Tok are the most prominent examples.
The Clubhouse is still in its early beginnings and has many major competitors ahead of it, as Twitter has begun testing a similar feature called Spaces that allows users to speak with voice in a makeshift room.
It is noteworthy that the Clubhouse application has reaped investments from 180 different parties, which raised its market value to more than one billion dollars, and the application is available exclusively on the iPhone and is registered in the invitation-only system currently, yet it has 6 million active users.
The app was launched last year by former Google employee Rohan Seth and his partner Paul Davison.
