Does anyone think that the Fediverse would make a much better next phase for the web then all of this Metaverse bull?

I'd much rather see sites like Lemmy, PeerTube, and Mastodon see widespread adoption then the dystopian cyberpunk fever dream in the head of Zuckerburg. Did you not read the novel dude? It's a freaking warning! That's like Jeff Bezos reading Fahrenheit 451 and going "holy crap dude, gotta make that a reality like, yesterday!" I want the Fediverse, not the Metaverse! Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Dude, I never thought of that! And some users have already pointed out that the metaverse idea is already dead and Zuck's company is in shambles. This is a weird time for social media isn't it? Facebook's company is slowly dying, Tik-Tok is getting banned (or at least in the process of it) Elon killed Twitter, and the u/spez is murdering Reddit. This is the perfect time for the Fediverse isn't it?
