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.

Mobile apps. They have so much money and users and it still feels like there isn’t as many cool mobile apps as there are cool computer program.
Mobile apps often feel like a web browser with the URL bar.
Anything hyped on Hacker News. Tech bros are only about their big payday. Very little of their shit improves the world and they disrupt industries and social structures without creating worthwhile replacements. They receive too much attention and have way too much access to capital which could be used more productively elsewhere. They are ruining my enjoyment of technology. I am very wary of services infringing my privacy, stealing my intellectual works, leaving me open to hackers, marketers and predatory business models, putting people out of work, promoting unfair employment practices, disconnecting people from their friends, family and community, promoting social division etc.
