It was a cash hole the lizard man could pour money into so that the story became how bad they fucked up the metaverse, and not the burgeoning story about how they created an algorithm that destroys democracy for a few extra dollars per active user.
I can tell you what the Metaverse is not. A corporate social space. That said there is interest in what it could be out side of the corporate dystopia.
I have been imagineering a VR Theme Park with highly detailed dark rides that is online and thus a Metaverse by definition and it ranks in the top VR apps and miles above all the social focus Metaverses, especially the corporate ones. I am sure there will be other Metaverses that catch on too, it is just hard to see when the corporations shit all over the term by presenting such an awful, boring and downright creepy take on it.
And people still don’t know what the fuck a metaverse is
A masterclass in colossal failure
Plus finding out doesn’t help.
“What’s a metaverse”
“It’s Second Life VR”
“Oh, no thanks”

From what I understand Facebook/meta is just a very small part of the metaverse but I could be wrong
There is no “The” Metaverse, every company has their own interpretation of it.
