  2. So, about 8 months after #Zuckerburg pulled the plug on his #Metaverse grift, I feel like talking about the actual proposal and the bullet we dodged on the grounds that #Meta was completely incapable of delivering the kind of experience #VirtualWorlds like #SecondLife, #VRChat, and #Resonite have become popular for.
