    I’m not sure what gave you that impression, I’m just talking about the metaverse the metaverse, which facebook owns no more than they own the internet. Plenty of other companies are also investing in the concept, like microsoft with their blizzard acquisition. While facebook is branding themselves as Meta and trying to be known as the main compnay behind it, even they don’t claim to invent or own the metaverse.

      ok sorry i didn’t realise you were making more general statements.

      imo facebook has demonstrated they’re simply too evil to be trusted as the main company behind a concept like this.

      i’m doubtful they’ll ever come out and blatantly make a false claim like “we invented it”, more they’ll allow the majority to implicitly believe they did
