It might have gotten missed in all of the chaos of the week, but Mark Zuckerberg's dream of the Metaverse was declared dead.

Couldn't have happened to a better project.

@keirFox Furries come out on top once again

@notthatdelta This is one aspect of Meta’s vision I will *never* understand - they were so out of touch that they openly advertised how you would look exactly like you do in the real world, your friends would look just like they actually do, and you’d be shopping for all of the same stuff you already do now. Their biggest brag? You’d be attending *meetings* there.

What in the actual hell how could any design be so thoughtless and inconsiderate towards what people actually wanted. Meanwhile in VRChat I got to attend a yoga class instructed by a giant, pink dragon and it was incredible.

@keirFox @notthatdelta Yea, it's almost as if Zuck was entirely cranio-rectally inverted....
@hrrunka @keirFox see my other comment, but I feel like this whole thing was basically a shiny toy they threw to Zuckerberg to keep him out from underfoot.
@notthatdelta @keirFox Could well be. Maybe it just took him this long to spot that his Metaverse face is prime content for just about every satire/comedy/ridicule site out there...
