It feels like every few months there’s a new tech “revolution” being hyped up as the future. Besides AI, what’s the most overhyped trend in tech right now? For me, it’s the constant buzz around the metaverse.

      The post title was an entire thought in the form of a question. It invited people to come and share their opinions.

      Not to mention that in many clients, the title is presented first before the post body. So someone could come up with their answer after reading everything initially presented to them about this post.

      Also, skimming is a useful thing that people do, lol
