Several beautiful modal dialogs later, my Meta account has been linked to my Facebook account, my Oculus profile is now my Horizon profile, and I have chosen a publicly viewable(!?) display name for my Horizon profile (a profile for a game I have never played and never intend to play). I have been informed that my Oculus friends are now Horizon followers, given the chance to select "how social [I] want to be," asked to invite my Facebook friends to join Horizon -- and I still haven't generated an image. I almost feel like this image generator is somehow a long con to get people to update their Meta accounts.

I want to find the group of product managers responsible for this user journey and just... shake them out of it! The design you shipped is really dumb! None of this makes sense outside of Meta! There's a whole world out here! Nobody cares about Horizon Worlds!
