People hate zuckerberg and facebook.
Then again, instagram is facebook and so is whatsapp and those apps are widly popular. Basically completely ubiquitous these days.
So will that happen with meta? I've never used a VR chat room as I'm not a deranged faggot. Do they have appeal to zoomers and younger?
Meta itself is a direct copy of https://decentraland.org/. I'm not sure how popular that is though but I remember seeing second life and thinking "who the fuck would even consider wasting their time with this" and then seeing how popular it was. Roblox is another virtual social network world that is wildly popular too. And I can see how many people these days would want to escape into a virtual world.
It will not.
The people who fantasize about this shit are too far removed from the reality of daily life for the majority of the working class.
I don't know. Look at tiktok with zoomers. When I first saw it I though it was the most depraved, most faggoty, most deranged and cringe thing I've ever seen. I thought no parent would allow their kids to use it, etc, etc, etc. But not, zoomers love it and their gen X parents don't give a shit.
Tiktok is what makes me hesitate. And there are retarded faggots currently who use VR chat rooms (I read it was, at the moment, mostly furries, but still).
Yeah, that was a mistake. Parents are letting screens raise their kids because it keeps them out of their hair, and they've been doing it for longer than a lot of us have been alive. First the TV, then the computer, and now the smartphone/tablet. Among many other horrible things, social media allowed the tranny problem to metastasize. The last decade has been the perfect storm: Inattentive parents, an infinite supply of stimulation, an endless supply of degenerate porn, and light speed communication with every sexual predator on the planet. It's a miracle that there's anything left of Western society.
There's stuff left of ancient Greek and Roman societies too. Our ruins are just fresher.
Meta itself though is a ripoff of: https://decentraland.org/
Just like Second Life a generation ago.
It'll go nowhere.
Second life was a big hit but it didn't innovate and stagnated.
Second Life at its peak was in the ballpark of Age of Conan and EVE Online in terms of accounts and online users.
Not exactly worthy of being called "a big hit". A big polished pile of cow shit can get a million accounts and ten thousand concurrent active just off of people saying "Hey, come look at this pile of cow shit." See Wildstar for example.
