Napster will promote music in “branded 3D virtual spaces,” soon-to-be owner says.

    FFS, stop trying to make the Metaverse happen. Nobody wants it.

      Those who want it have been using it for 20 years already with Second Life. Oddly enough, none of these new metaverse makers take any lessons learned from that but I guess then they would have to admit that VR is crap that nobody needs for immersion.

          Looks like I forgot the /s but yeah, there’s some really shitty stuff on the metaverse but I believe it’s got a future once some things are sorted out. Like the Fediverse.

            The mediverse is a thing now? Like people log onto it? I thought it was just a failed concept.

        No shame in liking what you like. Roblox is a metaverse and lots of people play on that.

        Just a heads up: internet points don’t matter at all. They have no bearing on real actual life. You can relax.

          Mr. Satans Methpipe sir, with all due devil respect, but you have no idea what I’m doing with these points in the metaverse, where they mean a lot. But thanks for the devilish concern.

          The rules on the Fediverse are different I thought? No?
