I'm just pissed I can't use my rift without needing to sell my privacy for a useless garbage account that will only provide me with firmware.

Huh, guess I got the better deal with the Quest 1. It's just bugging me to login. But I can still use it with sideloaded apks and PCVR via ALVR.

Any good source for the APKs? I actually had purchased several games before they sold to Zuck and I'd like to get those back! If it's against rules or something, feel free to DM.

Any time any company claims their account system wont change, right before acquisition, you can give it a solid year, and then it inevitably does

There are some smart people that are making the rift-s work on linux using Monado. As I currently understand it, good 6dof controller tracking is the final roadblock to it being fully usable. LVRA wiki has more information about this kind of stuff.

Very much appreciate the info.
