>To where? Who knows, but I imagine people will have a choice of multiple services instead of one or two big behemoths (i.e Facebook & Twitter).

Hopefully, they will re-discover the joys and challenges of in-person communication and social networking.

I want to be fully wired in and never interact with someone in person ever again. Your username reeks of pure evil for someone like me.

Hard to tell if you're serious. If so, the "VR Metaverse" will only exist for a select few techno-elites, and I'm not really sure what they would say to each other. Probably end up just scrolling on their phones in VR.

You're seriously disconnected from what young people are doing. Search 'vrchat' on youtube.

I am not going to spend my time watching videos of other people in VR. You're seriously disconnected from what young people are doing. Search "dirt jumps" on youtube.
