If the content in your menu is important to your users, you'll want to show it too them by having the menu open. Google will give it more weight because its visible. When the menu is closed, it's hidden, devaluing the importance. If your content is important, you should have it open on default.

I tried this on quest 2 a few times with a view through keyboard. Wasn't very practical. Great to see how the industry has progressed in such a short space of time.

Web 2.0 started with decentralization ideals, but ultimately became centralised. Web3 may follow the same pattern. Even Bitcoin, initially a decentralized response to the 2008 crisis, is facing potential regulation that could lead to more centralized control. History often rhymes

People always forget the second part of that phrase. SEO is dead . . . long live SEO. What do you think caused the spike mid august? Links, technical fix?
