RE: Presenting a new study: The 4 Epochs of the Metaverse

We have learned to do things in certain ways, they are already learning how easy everything is, that we can simply scroll and do nothing all day

This is a very good point - I didn't really take this into account in my previous reply, but can see what you're saying - for the younger generation who don't know any different, the metaverse is likely to be as exciting as the advent of PC's was for Gen X/Y.
I guess, as well, it's like anything really, we can always choose to not use it, or to at least use common sense and not allow it to overtake reality.
