The new Meta Metaverse looks... interesting to say the least. Has anyone looked further into it?

Yeah I think it looks terrible and I find it hilarious how Meta is burning billions trying to sell us their half-baked version of a virtual online community, especially when there already exist plenty of better ones

EXACTLY! VRChat anyone? There are already so many virtual worlds out there that are way better than Meta's sterile and soulless version of it

I have looked further into it and am unsure what to make of it. It seems like a very strange and confusing world. I don't think I would be able to get used to it.

Tbh I haven't seen anything impressive or game changing about it. I wouldn't worry too much about having to get used to it lol

The metaverse is a huge market opportunity, almost nobody is using it, but I'm it will be the future.

What do you think the metaverse offers for marketing that doesn't exist already?

Did you see those pictures they posted? Zuck's character model was terrifying to look at lol They're gonna need A LOT of work for this project to stand a chance

Yeah I think I had nightmares the night after seeing that monstrosity on my timeline lol

I just can't fathom that no one at Meta cares how bad their Metaverse previews are. You'd think someone would pump the brakes on putting those out

I think we still have a lot to see and discover about the metaverse. I will keep you posted on what's new

Interesting is definitely one word you can use for it. Looks like they still need to throw another 10 billion at this project lol

Looks plastic, boring, and not ready for the public at all

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big. I don’t know where this “glow” is but I look in the mirror and literally am grappling with not recognizing myself :( it’s been impossible to find any clothes too.

(Note that you request them to review and give their pov earlier on, but they never take the time out)

The argument that climate change is not man-made has been disproven by science over and over again, yet many people believe that the global crisis is either not real, not of our making, or both, in part because the news media deliberately chooses not to talk about it because it doesn't sell enough.
