So, what do techies think about the metaverse?

Wikipedia: In futurism and science fiction, the metaverse is a hypothetical iteration of the Internet as a single, universal and immersive virtual world that is facilitated by the use of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) headsets. In colloquial use, a metaverse is a network of 3D virtual worlds focused on social connection.

Metaverse? Honestly: what a waste of skills, time, resources. As this Slashdot poll shows - techies are pretty scathing of the whole Metaverse thing. Nothing to see here - move along!

In other news: Meta shares plunge 24% to the lowest price since 2016.
