How have you missed VRChat? It's taking over. That's the killer app right there.

Your comment got me curious, so I went on VRChat's steam page. This was the second "most helpful" review:
" Today I sat at a virtual bar and pretended to drink with a cat, a xenomorph, and a tiny anime girl.
What am I doing with my life.
UPDATE: So a bunch of bu's from dragon ball just invaded a cafe I was working in and started asking if we wanted to invest in bitcoin. I can't make this stuff up. This is their discord; <address> "
If that's the killer app, I wouldn't be too optimistic.

Maybe some people don't remember how popular chat rooms were back in the AOL days?

IIRC there was a lot of kicking and banning... so what does a kick look like in the glory of VR???

You could have said the same thing about the internet after seeing the web in Mosaic.
People are using VR Chat, and adoption alone is what makes a "killer app." Complexity and depth and such can come later, but only after the masses have cared long enough to build on the foundation.

Try searching youtube for 'Uganda Knuckles' That seems to be the "killer app" for VRChat.

VRChat is now the premier platform for people to be weirdos online.
