gravitas_deficiency,

At the end of the day, all they did was subsume a neat company with a neat product and bastardize it into something that resembled a cog in Zuck’s money machine.

I waited a long time to get into VR because I was anticipating spending $1k+ on some tethered headset and I wanted to avoid Facebook. Finally my curiosity got the better of me and I bought a Quest 3.

Holy moly I’m so glad I did. It’s an incredible device that costs half as much and yet does more than the headset I was planning to buy. I know Lemmy leans very anti-Facebook, and so did I to an extent, but I don’t regret my purchase one bit.

Sandbag,

Don’t know why you are getting down voted, you bought what you thought was best for you. That’s all that matters what you think is best for you.

As soon as I found out you need a Facebook account to use it, all possibilities of me ever buying one ended.

bazus1,

If it wasn’t tied to a shitty tech company, I’d have bought one by now.

Tar_alcaran,

The main thing it changed for me is completely writing off Oculus as a VR contender, thanks to Facebook/Meta being behind it.

Yeah I had really wanted one and would’ve eventually, now I have zero interest.

I’d even go so far as to say seeing Meta get involved in it killed off a lot of my interest for VR in general.
