VRChat is Laying Off 30% of Team

I would hardly say the platform is dead. Apple just launched the Vision Pro. That's not a silver bullet but I'm sure they are looking for more apps and games. I hardly think VR is going away.

Not at all saying it's dead! Just a vastly smaller market space than say, doing crud stuff or ML in the year of our Lord 2024. I'm a huge VR enjoyer and I hope the medium flourishes.

I’m pretty sure they’ll be fine. I can’t imagine a CRUD agency being like “VR? No transferable skills! To the breadline with you!” Realtime state management is a highly sought after skill.
