No One Wants to Hang in Mark Zuckerberg's Metaverse

Motherboard Money

There’s been a lot of hype about the metaverse. A lot of theorizing about how we’ll spend our time there. But that hasn’t happened. And as corporations develop their own metaverses, it seems like fewer and fewer  people want to hang out in them.

In this episode, Jason and senior editor Samantha Cole talk about whether these corporate metaverses have any shot at being the next big thing.
