"I may never financially recover from this." is well said. I need to buy all of these. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Nibodhika@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 child) Yup, that's me too, love VR, but refused to get a headset before because I would need a Windows machine. I bought a Quest 1, still use it sometimes, but I knew it was never going to be a long term for me, Meta is not a company I trust enough, and they did exactly what I expected them to do. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 9 months ago It will be interesting to see if Meta have any real response to this. They obviously never expected to have any competition so they got a scummy as possible with it. Now that they actually have competition they're sort of stuck, their only real response is to become more consumer-friendly, which is basically impossible because of their corporate culture. permalink fedilink source parent
