I had the Oculus quest DK2 before oculus was bought by Facebook and enjoyed playing whatever people made, but the more Facebook locked everything down the less interested I became in VR.

Now you can’t even play with a quest unless you have a Facebook account, and it seems so easy to get locked out of your account on purpose or accidentally.

Are there unlocked VR headsets that I can just have fun with instead of being locked into one company and their products?

Thanks

    Honestly just get a new disposable email address and make a new account, turn on all the privacy settings and don’t engage with the meta stuff outside of launching SteamVR.

    It’s not perfect but the headsets are great pieces of hardware and they’re great value for money.
