Mark Zuckerberg’s latest Metaverse post was mercilessly and hilariously ripped for its graphics
On Monday, Mark Zuckerberg launched Horizon Worlds in France and Spain for his digital space The Metaverse, and he announced it on Facebook – naturally.
Facebook users indulged in some fairly mild pisstaking.

Eiffel tower 🗼 and you look real.

Twitter, however, was a little more brutal.

Facebook spent $10 billion on metaverse projects in 2021.
The graphics look like they came out of a computer game developed in 1997. pic.twitter.com/KuGMBMF3O1
