Could you build this?

Partial The social feed and voting mechanics are trivial, but managing scalable real-time interactive multi-user voice rooms requires specialized WebRTC streaming infrastructure.

What it would actually take: The frontend could be built with Flutter or React Native, backed by a standard backend (Node/Go + Postgres). The complex component is low-latency real-time voice routing, which requires deploying Selective Forwarding Units (SFUs) like LiveKit, Janus, or mediasoup, managing audio codec negotiation, packet loss concealment, and global edge server infrastructure.
