@atomicpoet I think management-speak is "deprioritized", as in dropping from billions to *maybe* millions. I suppose someone sat him down and explained this is a long-term garden if it blooms at all

After all, it's a repeat of today's social media ~ a bunch of walled gardens, except people that have bought on are spending stupid amounts of money for things like "property NFTs" to companies that may not even exist next year
