OK, enough US election talk for this week - here's an open forum. Post anything... as long as it's virtual somehow and it's not about the RL election.

SO ...a day late and a linden short lol
Today, the owner of the Opensim Virtual group posted a thread asking folks to refrain from promoting other platforms (High Fidelity, Space, etc) and to keep it "Opensim only, please". I'm here to drop some tldr in response to that.
I am an owner of the "Opensim Everything" G+ group. With new virtual worlds popping up and new developments in VR tech I think it's mistake to say the metaverse is just opensim and/or SL. That's a sentiment I totally reject.
As long as I'm an administrator of the "Opensim Everything" group, we will dedicate ourselves to giving folks a place to share and promote their endevours and platforms -not just Opensim (though Opensim will remain our primary focus).
If you're on G+ and interested in alternate virtual worlds, check us out:
