Plus, you didn't mention that the Metaverse will almost instantly be taken over by next-level hardcore porn.

On point. The killer app of VR is immersive edginess. So censorship and surveillance capitalism will make for a dull af virtual reality. I do not see Instagram influencers migrating to Meta's VR regardless of any payment structure or functionality.

Everyone knows Meta is a direct reflection of Mark Zuckerberg's thinking, just like Facebook itself is. We all know his thinking is seriously damaged. So why would we want to immerse ourselves further? We already swim in his reality and it is garbage dope rat surveillance capitalism ... There's just not a viable successor just yet. But it's no wonder kids flee to Bytedance - Zuck is literally less cool than the Chinese Communist Party lol
