I think Facebook was in serious trouble as a business anyways. They had already lost the younger generation, and their biggest audience was boomers. Now they pushed a ton of the boomers off with their blatant censorship.

Instagram seems to be doing alright, but not near the footprint that Facebook had. I don’t think anyone uses whats app. The oculus system is pretty cool but though

They say they are going to focus on video platforms, but seem to be way behind there

So in conclusion, I can’t present any objective idea, just opinions out my ass

I guess the metaverse could be cool, but i am very skeptical. Does it involve wearing an oculus type headset? If so, that is a huge negative imo. Maybe they can integrate it with a google glass type product?

It seems like there could be some good entertainment value in a metaverse. Maybe similar to going to the movies.

There is a big difference between the metaverse and the "Meta"verse. Facebook took a term and basically branded it. It would be like a company calling themselves "Net" with respect to the internet.

Metaverse generally refers to the concept of a highly immersive virtual world where people gather to socialize, play, and work. Basically the next step of the internet

Lots of ads for cell phone encryption nowadays. Then you see it's Whats App and it's owned by Meta. I suppose everything sent through that App gets harvested in FB's computers to be used against you later.

Pedoverse is all I see. They are gearing it towards teens and youngsters. Itll be them and perverts exclusively

You are obviously too young to remember MySpace. It was clearly the better social network and much more hoors on it. Facebook is for oldes and idiots.
