Geez look at that RGTI chart. The conference calls alone must have been brutal.
I wonder how different this story would have been with better macros this year though.
If I worked in the field I'd seriously lean hard on governmental-institution support since markets are so focused on brass tacks rn. From a global-government POV this tech is unmistakably valuable even in theoretical (or maybe what some would call vapor) form.

No idea how common this sentiment is. It matches my observations, and I wouldn't be surprised to see the market (in particular the short term focused VC market) become impatient with vague promises of theoretical future performance, and mostly drop the whole field.
Quantum computing, as an investment, is sort of a compressed version of AI - it's got lots of potential, but got misunderstood and overhyped by investors that will flee when short term results don't match whatever they imagined the tech could do without understanding it.
