Techcrunch: "Startup Investors Have Fled The Metaverse".

I did not expect that. But then, I didn't expect that a giant social media company renames itself into this market and then sort of ... peters out?

I wonder what those numbers look like 12 months from now, given Apple.

@J12t I think "meta" is a larger term than XR. I think its interesting tech and hope Apple brings good things to it, ideally targeting standards like WebVR so it's not all exclusive.

@vid imho Apple’s positioning it as “spatial computing” is exactly right.

@J12t yes I saw how they tell developers not to call it VR/AR (XR). "spatial" is not a great term because immersion is also very important, as witnessed by their gasket fitting, there are many applications where 'spatial' is not a key feature.
