It’s more like a public Slack room.
Talkshow is a new messaging app where all the conversations are public. The company says Talkshow "is texting in public," but it really feels much more like a public-facing Slack room — an ongoing conversation between multiple people, that anyone can see.
No. Here's the difference: While all the chats on Talkshow are publicly viewable, only people you invite can join the conversation. On Twitter, not only do all conversations take place in public, but anyone who hits the reply button can join in.
Simply put, randos can't "actually" their way into your conversation on Talkshow like they can on Twitter. While someone can request an invitation, it's up to the host of a conversation whether or not to let them in.
But it's funny you should mention Twitter because Talkshow is from Michael Sippey, who used to run product there, and it is clearly informed by Twitter.
Another substantial difference is that messages are organized into distinct sets, which makes them easy to follow.
Conversations in Talkshow take place within "shows." You can think of these as chat rooms, more or less.
Shows tend to work really well when they take place around a certain event that everyone is experiencing at the same time — for example, the NBA playoffs. That's especially true when the people in the conversation are knowledgable and funny. It can be a little like watching MST3K, but on your phone, and in text format.
