@Yoshi@toot.community @iurii@mastodon.world @krystyna@toad.social @nixCraft@mastodon.social Isn't that obvious? It's an attempt to create to sell useless crap. Metaverse was the same, just on a smaller scale. Everyone whose salary or investment depended on it succeeding was in on the hype. Everyone else just saw a bad Second Life replica. The tech industry has no hypergrowth markets left. There's no actual innovation anymore, hasn't been the case for years. So instead they try rent seeking and fraudulent hypes.
