It has been a rough week for the metaverse010 Archives my friends. Meta launched their Horizon Worlds platform in Spain and France and reception was… frigid. That's mostly thanks to the unimpressive graphics and awkward, lifeless avatars, all of which might be forgiveable if Meta had not spent a significant portion of a reported $10 billion developing them.

I'm no stranger to critiques of Meta, but it gives me very little pleasure to see the metaverse being misunderstood in such a massive way. And that's not the public’s fault—it’s Meta’s.

Anyway, here are the best tweets dunking on Horizon Worlds.

Wonderful stuff
