    Big reason why I just never understood why Meta bet the farm on VR/metaverse. Such a stupid move, literally everyone knew that VR wasn't ready for mainstream. The only people willing to get it were tech nerds and some gamers, and really that had nothing to do with the metaverse, it was because they could play games in it.

    Until it gets stable and doesn't feel like I'm strapping a brick onto my face, it's not going to happen mainstream. It also can't just connect to a PC, average people don't want to be strapped down to something. And I know, that's a lot to ask, but if you want to base your entire company on VR, those are the hard realities. People want something like sunglasses, not something that feels like duct taping a laptop in front of their face
