It's not in the slightest.

The furry community had a virtual convention called Furality in VRChat last weekend and it was a lot of fun. Round-the-clock DJs during the weekend, meetups, panels, semi-public game instances (restricted to con-goers only, so technically private but effectively public, which is nice because public VRC tends to have anti-fur/lgbt trolls), and more. There were some really cool avatars in the dealer's dens that did things I didn't know you could do with avatars. Then there was an eclipse just before the closing ceremony that caused Furality's site to crash from the wave of furries trying to switch to the eclipse-viewing world (you could see the eclipse from any of the convention worlds, but they had a world specifically for viewing the eclipse).

Hell, impressively they had a few 250-player instances that actually worked and didn't immediately crash. They chugged even on high-end PCs, but it's impressive they got more than 30~40 people into a world and have it still running.

Edit: one of the coolest avatars was Toolbox Motley's avatar. You can see some of the stuff here (I believe that's the video he used for his booth in the dealer's den), and he's got some tutorials for some of the effects on his channel. One of the most impressive things imo is his teleporter. He's got a teleporter tutorial that adds portals to your avatar so you can set up portals for friends; and if I understand correctly, it doesn't use any special OSC or anything, it only uses Unity's animator (VRC avatars can't have custom scripts attached to them, so everything has to be done via animations and/or OSC).
