Join the VR funeral event to celebrate the end of the metaverse - Lemmy Today

We have all read from tech magazines and LinkedIn posts that VR is dead and the metaverse is dead. It’s definitely over, like 3D TVs or the Spice Girls. We all VR enthusiasts are so sad about this, so we are going to say farewell to our beloved technology today, in a big event: the VR Funeral, or like we are already nicknaming it, the MRourning. Born thanks to a collaboration between multiple VR institutions, companies (Pico, Meta, HTC, etc…), and VR events organizers (like AWE, VRAR World, XRCC, etc…), the VR Funeral will be the final event of virtual reality. After that, there will be no more events about immersive realities, and all companies will shut down the production of VR headsets. All VR runtimes will enter life support and will be discontinued in the upcoming weeks (please refer to the pages of the manufacturers to see the roadmaps of the various vendors).
