Does this make it possible to use the headset without ever having a Meta account? That's the only way I'd be willing to interact with a Quest device.
Lol, of course not, you have to make an account to enable developer options to enable side loading
The stealing of our data is how they make the headset so cheap
Hopefully, someone is sitting on a root workaround, and will reveal it once the updates stop.
I'd buy a second hand one, if there was a way to use it without any meta involvement.
I'm expecting it, tbh
I have a quest 2 and it's actually a FANTASTIC headset, but I want to rip the meta shit out
Not even because they're a gross company (tho they are), I use a burner account with burner info and play in a gray room through a router specifically for my VR (almost completely lag free wireless this way, it works) but because I HATE that they made you have arms in an update and didn't let us turn it off. They're horrid

Yes, because of John Fifth-Dimensional-Being-Pretending-to-be-a-Human Carmack.
"oh, do you need me to just invent the fundamental technology for a massive sector of computing again? Sure, no problem, have it to ya by Friday"
John Carmack on multiple occasions
So they made you join the army?
I wish they gave me a firearm
But no, it's a garbage implementation of giving you a digital avatar that displays arms in a first person view by guessing where they must be based off of controller position.
It clearly doesn't use the cams on the device cuz they're bad

What? I'm guessing they made it so your arms show up in-game somehow???
Not in games, but in the main hub menu of the device
It tries to guess where your arms are based on controller position
