It's coming back thanks to those vaccine mandates that were brought in.
Nah, it's because the US is full of whiny babies who don't want to recognize other people's authority and expertise over their whims, and rather have disease and mass murders than let other people say to them there is a better course of action.

Uphold the values of the constitution of the USA, but in the digital space.

Is anyone else worried about the apple vision pro?

I think that's mainly in the US, though. For the rest of the world the price tag is too high and the iPhone is the mark of the pretentious or the hipster. Or the iOS developer 😄
The rest of us are happy with our Android phones.
