What does "you personally hearing" about anything have to do with a success of a major corpo product?
I mean, media is reporting it as a success: https://www.cnet.com/news/facebook-portal-is-a-hit-during-the-coronavirus-lockdown-thanks-to-your-grandparents/ https://www.cnet.com/news/facebook-portal-is-a-hit-during-th...
What does your personal experience mean here? Or to Facebook as a whole? Bubbles are a thing you know and it's good to get rid of this bubble-restricted thinking.
- Clubber 5y agoMuch of what the media, particularly the tech media "reports" on is really just paid advertising. >Numbers on Portal sales are hard to come by. That's buried in the article. If the sales numbers are hard to come by, how do they know it's a hit? Because Facebook says so? Questionable.
