Facebooks idea for improving vr was buying out all the major game studios, never doing anything with them, then shutting them down
Xbox is famous for that and PS does it too.
All mean while they tried to push this idea of the “metaverse”
Yeah Metaverse was a collosal failure. But it’s one app on the Quest hardware. The Google Pixel is a still a good hackable phone despite Google+ being a huge failure for Google.
The consumer is always right
Consumers took to micro transactions like fish to water. Apple became a Trillion dollar company by ignoring the consumer and forcing their way.
“A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals, and you know it.”
It was more the second half of the last paragraph I was trying to drive home. I wanted to make a point about how the app market is a closed Eco system and how that is a form of abusive control to ensure people don’t have a choice even if they don’t like it. Yeah I’m sorry I didn’t put more effort the last reply, it I just kind of mentally moved on and wasn’t feeling it. I’m still not now honestly or I would of obnoxiously wrote you 8 more paragraphs.
The way you framed it in your last sentence really reasonated with me and I understand your point now. Yes I agree some what, but no. I genuinely think people are smarter than you give them credit, but are limited by time, and are physically limited by the info the are presented. There’s a million different cultures and things happening at once and you have a narrow scope of vision where you are stuck in a demographic that is being advertised to and manipulated.

Just reread my last paragraph and that is my reply.
Repeating “consumers are always right” isn’t a rebuttal.
Consumers weren’t forced to buy iphones through monopoly or money. They did it because in general, they are stupid.
