Weekend Reading!

Someone at META FINALLY has seen the light in the VR tunnel and it is a dead train.

Meta recently announced starting on June 15, 2026, it will no longer be possible to build, publish or update VR worlds, and Horizon Worlds will not be accessible with VR headsets - the spaces will continue to be be available via the Horizon mobile app only.

This comes just a few weeks after Meta cut over 1,000 employees from Reality Labs, the unit responsible for the metaverse. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/18/meta-horizon-worlds-metaverse-vr.html

In 2018, I first wrote about how dedicated "VR Worlds" would be a #Fail and would be destined to be highly niche products and NOT be the world changing tech as claimed by proponents.
