Meta is the company behind the most popular social media and messaging apps like Facebook (NASDAQ:META), Messenger, and WhatsApp. Naturally, the tech giant led by IT mogul Mark Zuckerberg attempts to stay a step ahead of innovation at all costs, but that comes with its own risks. As the scrupulous development of the metaverse continues, let’s have a look at the largest mistakes Meta has encountered so far in their Web 3.0 journey.

1) The Visuals

The lack of aesthetics in Meta’s metaverse is well illustrated by the roasting that Mark Zuckerberg had to experience shortly after he shared his metaverse profile pic. Happy to have completed a milestone, Mr. Zuckerberg shared his metaverse avatar only to get slammed by his Twitter audience. At the time, ‘soulless’ and ‘dead-eyed’ were pretty much the go-to description for Zuck’s avatar, giving birth to a tirade of memes.

However, while most of the people on the internet poked fun at the tech mogul, it left a lot of technology enthusiasts extremely worried about the digital future. For instance, Elon Musk’s ex-girlfriend Grimes couldn’t resist from bashing Zuckerberg’s lack of visual appeal.

“Zuck is unfit to run the metaverse,” the Canadian dream pop singer nervously concluded.
