Although Clubhouse faced its first alleged data breach recently, there is no denying that the audio-based social networking platform has recently gained immense popularity. We have since seen numerous major companies such as Facebook, Instagram, Discord, LinkedIn, and Telegram work on similar features for their platforms. Now, Reddit has hopped on the bandwagon with the launch of its Clubhouse clone called Reddit Talk.
The community-based social platform recently announced Reddit Talk via a blog post on Reddit. It opened a waitlist for users to register to test the feature. It is currently in the initial testing phase and will be rolled out to the masses in the coming days.
Listeners, on the other hand, also have a lot of options to participate in the live talk sessions. For starters, any Redditor can join a talk room and listen to the speakers and react with emojis. They also have the option to raise their hand for the host to invite them to speak.
Now, during the early test phase, only community moderators will be able to start a Reddit Talk session with their community members. They can also invite trusted speakers to co-host a talk session with them. However, once a host starts a live Reddit Talk, any Redditor on iOS and Android can join the session.
