Sansar , High fidelity , vrchat ... they all struggle to get traction (and mostly fail) - why does facebook think they can do better
- martinpw 7y agoI guess one reason might be that they have a pre-existing social network to draw from, so much easier to coordinate social VR with friends. Not saying that is sufficient, but it definitely helps compared with a startup that has to rely more on having strangers interact or, if meeting with friends, is likely to be higher friction that FB can offer.

- meheleventyone 7y agoOne thing that sprang to mind is that they own the hardware too and can integrate Horizons tightly with the OS.
- buboard 7y agothe question is more whether they can sell oculus to facebook users rather than facebook to oculus users.
