Meta Cancels F8 Developer’s Conference This Year As It Aims to Focus on the Metaverse

Meta is not pushing through with the annual F8 Developer's Conference this year, with the company announcing that it canceled the festivities for this year. The reason for this is the social media company's focus on its products, specifically the metaverse, which the company has been building before its announcement of its existence.

Meta Cancels the F8 Developer's Conference This Year

The company from Mark Zuckerberg and formerly known as Facebook, announced that it is not holding the F8 Developer's Conference this year for many reasons. The company is focusing itself on many ventures that Facebook started when it first announced its name change to Meta, and it is with the new "chapter of the internet."

Meta said that there will be many opportunities for developers to experience F8, but not through the conference itself. It is with the many offers of the company and their other events that will focus on different initiatives that would not necessarily be about its systems and software but on other products that it brings.

Meta to Focus on Other Ventures instead of F8

Meta said that its main focus is the metaverse, and the company is gearing up toward significant improvements, which is why it canceled the F8 event. However, other offers are also up for grabs, and these ventures will fill in what F8 left as the company canceled its festivities.

The developer community will still have a chance to take part in Meta's other offers and events through the "Meta for Developers" website, which the company advises to tune into and watch for updates.

Meta's Metaverse and its Development

Meta is one of the companies that launched its metaverse service for everyone to enjoy, and it is one of the most accessible experiences to the virtual world in the present. It is one of the prolific as the world is on its way to the metaverse worlds, and there is a prediction that it will be a profitable industry in the coming years as it is the place to hang out.

Some reports claim Meta's Oculus Quest 2 VR headset is the top-selling tech wearable for virtual reality and augmented reality in 2021. The report is a massive improvement for Oculus and Meta as it only means that their devices are selling because of their functions and the rise of the metaverse that many people have already familiarized themselves with.

The metaverse, also known as Facebook's "Horizon Worlds," is enjoying its time in the spotlight now, particularly as it is still on its open beta setup for everyone to enjoy. The F8 event may not be the focus of the company now, but it will focus on the metaverse and other ventures of the company.

It offers to bring on developer updates from its official page for more opportunities.
