I don't really understand this critique. Isn't Twitter a metaverse of sorts? And It's a fairly dystopian one at that. I have no doubt these online environments

  I think people always think of the metaverse as a 3D space, whereas social networks are always thought of as more of a 2D space. That's how I think of it at least

    Social networks are much more than 2 (or even three) dimensional. Try mapping out connections (unweighted or weighted by any strength metric) and the figure out how many dimensions you’d need to consistently map that as distances in a space. Even for a single person and their direct connections and the connections between those direct connections you’ll usually get, I expect, a very large number of dimensions.
