He doesn't, I probably see more journalists complaining about how bad the metaverse is than people actually using it.

I don't think Roblox Facebook is eating into their funding. I've always been in the camp that it was launched as a distraction when they were dealing with negative publicity.

A lot of people seem to think it's some desperate and genuine attempt at diversifying assets. He knows it's not gonna change the world, Second Life came out when he was 18 lol.

I couldn't imagine someone as smart as him, with all the negative attention honestly thinking he could successfully launch something like this under his tainted brand.

That's funny to me, because I can't think of anything he's done, or said, that would indicate he's smart

It’s not that he’s not smart: it’s that he is not wise.

"Playing with TweetDeck. It's pretty neat."

Well I guess you’ll remain mystified, because I’m not about to waste my time linking to all the extremely well-publicized stupid shit he’s said that you will obviously continue to play dumb about.

There's like 10 tweets, so you must be incredibly lazy

It looks to me like you don't know what you're talking about.
