Tech Used to Be Bleeding Edge, Now it’s Just Bleeding | After a decade of scandals and half-assed product launches, people are no longer buying the future Big Tech is selling.::After a decade of scandals and half-assed product launches, people are no longer buying the future Big Tech is selling.
IKR! I bought in on its future, and it was always “Welllllll the NEXT one will be the big breakthrough!” and it keeps being screen door effect, fatigue issues, light leakage, and just left wanting. I’m an opponent over it because it’s always been overhyped. Some of the best killer apps abandoned the platforms due to the lack of revenue, and the dream has just been a dream this entire time.
I’m viciously opposed, BECAUSE I was so vested in it and watched generation after generation of the same bullshit “next time it’ll be the real breakthrough” when it’s always just janky.
Looking at how stupid people look wearing Apple Vision Pro’s, it just reminds me of big tech promising a revolution with Google Glass only to become a mockery of itself. There are some curious architecture and art applications alongside drone flights, but that’s very niche.
