#Meta / #Facebook ( #MFB ) plans for #metaverse look farther and farther away from fruition.

I can see some use for a metaverse ( after all, several years ago, many teens and twenty-somethings were clamoring about an early version of the metaverse, #Second_Life ). I just don't think at this point that a single vendor's platform (and remember, they also own #Oculus, the company that makes their 3D goggles) is able to get enough mindshare ... and as far as I know, MFB's version doesn't interact with competing platforms.
