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.
No, we aready have vr chat and second life. Combining them doesnt make it new.
The tech isnt there yet. Until we get holodeck and dont have to wear mask and look at screens 2 inches from our face it will remain niche. No matter how much is spent marketing it.
Which won't happen.
Oh, I'm sure the rich will have 3d rooms, with fancy projection tech. But the rich are, well, rich.
For everyone else the tech will be relegated to DisneyQuest II.
