I don't know about others, but personally I feel that the Vision Pro is a solution looking for a problem.

While the 3D / immersive video is surely impressive, and several of the advertised features are truly impressive feats of technology, it feels very much like they will collapse to gimmick-status before long.

I can't picture having this strapped to my face for 8 hours a day. In day-to-day life, I'm just not sure where this fits in... it's like a less-social TV? A laptop where it's awkward to turn around and ask my coworker a question? Generally, the ergonomics of the device just seem... off.

While the device might be good for Apple, I'm not convinced it's good for anyone else.

Super cool, thanks for posting this! I don't know if it's included in the original dataset, but would be really neat if the technical tab had any info on latency / network congestion.

This is a super neat idea! Worked really well for creating brush and spray paint tools. Not so much for a marquee / selection tool, however.

Found a UI bug as well - when you refresh the page, then click a tool, try to use it, then click 'load all', it duplicates the initial tool you chose.

Hey! This is cool, I like the idea of a supporting a social network via awards/trophies. Curious how you're thinking of positioning this vs. say, Mastodon or Bluesky? (or Ello, etc.)

Also, if I understand correctly, it's supposed to be a remix of Reddit + Twitter ideas?
