There were hype around this thing??

Zuckerberg was so hyped, he renamed his entire fucking company Meta.

Ironically, Zuck is all about FAIR now. Shouldn't it be MAIR now? :)

But Zuckerberg was pretty much alone, I don't recall anyone agreeing with his claims.

I remember a lot of fanboys who just uncritically believe whatever the latest hype is. The problem for the metaverse is that those people move on quickly and are probaly all talking about "AI" nowadays
