A multiverse of interlinked metaverses would be more interesting. The dystopian Metaverse, OASIS, etc have been single corporation controlled services. It would be nicer to have a standard set of protocols and APIs for anyone to create and host their own piece of the metaverse, and link them all together like the web. I really wish Facebook would do it like that, instead of implementing some crappy generic walled garden 3D version of their Groups and Pages.

- kennu 5y agoI think that is a bit like saying that the Google/Apple App Stores are too fragmented because they have so many different kinds of apps. Or that the web is too fragmented. The Metaverse is supposed to be a huge bazaar of different kind of services and content. Not just a single cathedral with similar nice looking rooms. I of course agree about (b) and I think it's about whether Facebook sees their metaverse as the next generation VR platform or as just one VR experience.
