It's just crazy for me how obsessed Zuckerberg has become.

Many companies have obsessed about technologies in the past.

#Microsoft was obsessed with touchscreen-friendly #UIs when #Windows8 came out as well as the #WindowsMobile operating system. They were able to realise that people didn't like it, so they moved on. Where #Nokia got obsessed with the #WindowsMobile idea and never moved to #Android, resulting in their death.

#Blackberry was the first company to release a "smartphone" at that time. They knew people wanted to email and communicate more efficiently on their phones, and phones were no longer just for calling. So they released the full qwerty-keyboard. But they got stuck with it and didn't realise the strengths and flexibility of touchscreen-keyboards and the screen real estate that you lose with hardware keyboards. So their phones died out.
