No, Facebook is following the exact same pattern MySpace fell into shortly before it died.

sort of. myspace's problems began when it was sold to news limited. they had no vision at all for the site outside of using it to sell advertising. this is when facebook came along to collect up their userbase. facebook dug their own grave by being arrogant and dangerously incompetent. one of the reasons why they changed their name was that their own market research demonstrated that the name "facebook" has a different reaction from zoomers than previous generations. zoomies know it's shit and a service for boomers. if facebook didn't have instagram then facebook would be in a world of shit.

does it even exist yet? I've been hearing bits and pieces about facebook's vision for their "metaverse", but have they actually built it yet?
John Young
Unless they invent a neural interface it will never be more than a niche. You may see companies adopt it for local metaverse servers however, everyone has to goggle in for meetings and HR will have a shitty digital social event twice a year

>does it even exist yet?
nothing exists. facebook plead with journalists to talk about this instead of their shocking business practices, mass tax evasion and serious privacy concerns. it's also a common tactic to keep shareholders hopeful instead of panic selling because the ship is literally sinking.

that's never going to happen.
>You may see companies adopt it for local metaverse servers however,
no, what's happening is that "metaverse" label is slapped onto anything that is "virtual reality but connected to the internet".

Neural interfacing in VR is closer than you want to believe.

Realistically speaking, what would come after Facebook? Will Instagram take its place (without key figures like groups)? Another platform? Nothing? Will the format die?
Parker Lewis
Notice how only boomers who like to pretend they're up with the times are interested in this thing.
And also some scammers who hope to create speculative bubbles on their metaverse content.
Aiden Foster
cute.
>Realistically speaking, what would come after Facebook?
imitators and splintered social media networks based on whatever flavor of circlejerk that you're interested in.
> Will Instagram take its place (without key figures like groups)?
for youth markets, instagram replaced it many years ago. for groups, there's whatsapp, discord, and a plethora of many other alt tech. the internet continues to evolve, but facebook got stuck in the late 2000s and made up ground by buying companies not as shit as them to make up for the dire lack of ideas. what facebook got frighteningly right was their engineering and ability to expand their network reach, capacity and reliability.
