He did the same thing with VR/Oculus/Reality Labs. Huge budget but it doesn't justify itself in terms of outcomes. Strange. Is it something in the way he/Meta manages the projects?

I think Meta has a problem that very few of its internal projects widely succeed. Facebook and Messenger being the only two. The rest of the successes were acquisitions.

Would be interesting to see what they can actually show for that investment. Some VR goggles and Raybans.
