First time I heard the name Decentraland was when [Folding Ideas] talked about what went on there, or more importantly what wasn't happening there

I mistakenly thought this was some parody of Metaverse like when Banksy made Dismaland

@[email protected] @[email protected] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiZhdpLXZ8Q this glorious takedown of the whole premise really hit home for me months ago. I like VR, i bought two devices and i use it daily at work, but the *metaverse*? like talking to people there and worse, buying stuff? no thank you, it's a terrible idea, but i just didn't know how terrible until i saw that.
