hey guys watch out for spam bots in the comments (i just spent 15 min deleting them and they just keep coming)
-
"You can decide when you want to teleport to a private bubble to be alone!" It's called logging off, Mark.
-
The Metaverse sounds so depressing to me. A bunch of people never leaving their chairs, just soaking up whatever garbage Zuck approves of. I love gaming, love technology but find Mark's vision very isolating and alone.
-
After coming out of almost 2 years feeling like I was trapped on the internet and couldn’t leave. I know for a fact that going to a physical bar, being able to see my family face to face, hanging out with my friends in person is always going to win over any virtual expirience
-
"Limitless possibilities" Except legs. Legs are the limit."
-
Seeing somebody else finally say out loud “hey isn’t living our entire lives on the internet kind of scary?” is honestly such a relief. I feel like I haven’t seen anyone emphasize that enough, that shit would really suck.
-
Mark wants to sell experiences that are free to us. Like hanging out with friends, having a gaming night, and more. Mark literally wants to capitalizes on social experience.
-
Anytime I see Mark I feel like I'm looking at an uncanny valley robot
-
I'd never actually seen footage of Mark Zuckerberg until this video, and I gotta say, I see the whole robot meme now. Also the Metaverse idea absolutely terrifies me
-
the second he said "you can virtually go to a concert and buy merch" it was clear that the whole point was to sell stuff and expose us to ads every second of our day
-
I'm convinced that Facebook's (I guess Meta's now) marketing team is intentionally sabotaging the company for laughs. These dudes literally made the pitch for the super bowl ad like, "Hey, people aren't taking Meta very seriously, so I think the perfect way to fix that (and really connect with those youths) is with a gritty five nights at freddy's redemption arc ad!"
-
Facebook literally just capitalizes/profits off of human social interaction, that’s their entire business model. By putting a piece of tech in between you and your friends/family, they essentially gain full control of everything you do and say with them in ‘private’. It gives them unprecedented access to relationships and people. This is an actual dystopia.
-
Mark's biggest mistake was using himself as the face of the Metaverse. Does he not realize nobody trusts or roots for him? This is a game, not a lifestyle.
-
The timing couldn't be worse either. We've all just spent the best part of two years being unable to properly interact in person, go to live events, or hug our friends. We are acutely aware of how much we want those things, and here's Marky Fivehead telling us to carry on doing it all remotely. Get in the fucking sea mate.
-
It's pretty interesting that we've reached a point where people reject new tech, not because it's "new and scary" but because it's just not what we want anymore
-
Zuckerberg looks like the answer to the question, 'What if people could be creepier looking than robots?'
-
This metaverse thing is what happens when CEOs don't listen to their design team or their user researchers. Or don't keep people on that is telling them their making the wrong decisions and fires them instead.
-
I like to pretend that Mark didn’t know that online gaming existed so he genuinely thinks that he’s making something unique
-
This really is the worst timeline. I really hope everyone doesn't just forget how evil these megacorps are.
-
Mark’s behavioral characteristics are on the extreme end of antisocial mindset. This difference in personality is why he thinks the Metaverse will work while everyone else can see the uselessness of it.
