Clearing the air on the sensational clickbait headlines of Metaverse "shutdown" but still pointing where dust stands.
Many have by now seen the "sensational" headlines about the Metaverse shutdown and how over 80 billion dollars went up in smoke.
After looking deeper into this, it isn't as destructive or tragic as the headlines make it to be.
It seems that most of the 80 billion dollars over 7 years was used for the development and manufacturing processes in things like chips, data centers, development tools, etc.
Put simply, they made possible creating functioning hardware like the Quest or the Ray Ban AR glasses.
Reading through several user reviews personally, I could see they did a fair job with those, so pretty much we can say the investment was worth it, especially considering it has the potential to help accelerate next generation hardware.
Now I'll point where the dust stands. Even though a small amount of 80 billion went into things like creator funds or other Horizon Worlds application programs it still totaled in estimates from ~200 million - ~ 500 million, which is still a large amount that with all due respect seems to have been an embarrassing failure.
I referred to this as "dust" because it's a factor in development, which can often be overlooked in corporate grand projects, where the hardware takes most of the attention and seriousness while the creative/creator "engine" aspect still seems to rely on some mundane advertising campaigns and even blander efforts at integrating innovative and daring creators.
My take is that Meta should have done a more serious and rigorous job on actively seeking and scouting creators, even if just here on X... At the end they would probably have had more success.
Because creative vision isn't an electric component but a fluid one, so I would even argue that scouting the proper people and teams for this should have been a top priority rather than a sideline team of sidekicks for the hardware.
To sum it up the 80 billion had pleasing results out of which we will see more fruits coming to life in the future, but the methodology for scouting and empowering the proper creators to drive the creative vision, was redundant and outdated.
Final closing thoughts. Considering that big corporations will probably be unable to ever overcome such vision barriers, we can at least expect them to keep bringing the hardware, whereas the independent creators will try their best in their own means to give them the vision which will provide fascinating experiences.

The Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Joseph Kent, has resigned effective immediately stating "I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby." Kent was nominated by President Trump in February of 2025 and confirmed by the U.S. Senate on July 30th.

Cigna Healthcare denied this American’s liver transplant surgery
He films a series of videos calling them 8 times trying to get any kind of help, being constantly passed around from department to department
It’s impossible. They also denied his cancer medication
The US healthcare system is broken. This should alarm you because it could easily be any of us one day
Listening to what he has to go through is absolutely insane just trying to get help, and it’s by design
I looked more into his situation and in a later video he finally gets an approval. Thank god
No American should have to go through this insanity

🚨Breaking: Democrats directly tied to Somali truck drivers! We followed the tail of a Somali trucking company and look where it led to -
We started in Barron Wisconsin and ended up at 1500 1st Ave NE, Rochester Minnesota 55906. @jewelsHND found this stunning news. 1500 1st Ave NE home to:
-multiple transport companies!
-more trucking companies!
-the Democratic Party Rochester Headquarters!
-to the Masjid Salaam mosque!
And there was not one single person around on a business weekday. Vehicles were in disrepair and not in service.
Where is our State Patrol? Our Sheriffs? The FBI? I have confirmed other states have begun seizing the semi-trucks when they find non-English speaking drivers or fake paperwork/licenses/permits. This is the only way to stop it.
See my 3 other tweets on this illegal alien trucking disaster, just scroll down in my tweets, for who is really behind this all.
