    Liv Erickson & Mozilla Hubs

    Liv Erickson leads Mozilla Hubs, a platform for building virtual worlds on the open web. Right now, the most popular VR platforms – such as VRChat, Rec Room, Horizon Worlds, and Roblox – are not on the open web. Rather, they are on apps, within closed ecosystems. In this conversation, we dive into how people are using Mozilla Hubs. And then we talk about the open web and closed ecosystems more broadly, exploring how the ecosystem will evolve.
