The Morbid Zoo made a video about the metaverse that i think works as a good companion piece to Folding Ideas' video about the same. I think where FI is really good at capturing how the specific incarnation of metaverses that happened during my lifetime where conceptual failures, tMZ is just fantastic at getting to the root cause of why anyone could've thought that bullshit was a good idea in the first place. like it's the diference between "text on a rewritable 2d surfece is just the maximally information-dense medium that we can invent right now" and "trying to make a medium that conveys maximum-reality rather then maximum information-density or maximum fitness-to-artistic-intent is a sign of this specific ideological failure". both analyses are important!
