Is anyone else excited to see Apple's annoucements at WWDC this year?

I'm not sure why there is so much hype on an AR/VR experience. They've always seemed like a bit of a gimmic to me, as they don't seem good for productivity, and gaming in VR sounds like it would give me a massive headache/seasickeness.

I hope apple can push vr/ar forward because there is definitely something to the technology, but it isn't there yet.

Having said that, I really wish that it is anyone other than apple and meta that find success eventually. I don't really want to deal with either of those companies. Apple controlled vr will be expensive, closed and proprietary. Meta I have decided to give as little data to as possible.

Those are good points. I think we’ll see others start to succeed more once the hardware price comes down. Apple has a habit of driving component prices down due to the shear scale of manufacturing they require.
