Why is Meta putting out updates that bog down and make older Quests unusable?

I purchased a Meta Quest 2 for my daughter for Christmas 2 years ago.. right after the Quest 3 was released. We barely used it but when we did it worked fine... up until about 6 months ago. Now this thing is about as good as a paper weight. Its practically brand new as its barely been used. Spending over $250 for a case and additional head strap to keep it safe and its literally worthless now. Upon research on other forums it seems like the updates that are being pushed out are basically making these older models useless. It gets stuck on simple operations that shouldnt be a problem... like trying to update an app or set up steam. I factory reset it and its still thinking for 5 minutes just opening the app store or basic menu. Of course now its been too long and my warranty is out so what now?....... im stuck with a $160 paper weight and a very disappointed child and other members of my household. Yall are as bad as apple pulling this stunt. Did you think about how this would effect other people who dont have the money to shell out hundreds of dollars on new models that you just keep half-a$$ pumping out to make money??? Probably dont give a crap as long as people keep paying their subscriptions and buying the new models.  Corporate greed has ruined gaming.. and the country in general. Ill never purchase a single thing from Meta ever again.. AND I will tell everyone I know (including content creators) to avoid this trash. Its sad, really, because I wanted to like it. Every time i set it up for my daughter I had such a hard time with everything (and im VERY tech savvy) that I wanted nothing to do with it for myself. Im so done.
