The Metaverse Is Bullshit

This is all just zuck jealous of worlds like roblox, it's full of kids unlike facebook

a big coporate rallying cry that they need to do something new to stay relevant in the future in truth they are as creative as a bag of rocks which is telling by their 3d re-creation of a boardroom and how unfun horizons is

virtural worlds are going to continue to evolve and be a big thing but meta's not going to win

I think that's true on the hardware side, but IMO it's more likely that various virtual worlds gain traction on 2d screens then support slowly support VR/AR which will bring more players into that market

I feel like FB is already adding to much baggage and bloat to their stuff going on horizon a month or so ago annoying and frustrating overall. it's the whole cart before the horse thing; eg. their cryptocurrency project

either way it gives the vibe of out of touch execs with massive resources at their disposal trying to prevent roblox/recroom/whatever from ending their fun by aiming "big" but they wont be able to
