@polka_panda I still have tests to do, but the way I've been able to use Avatars (I develop on S and deploy on Quest):
I create a desktop (Rift/S) game ID on Oculus dashboard
I create also a mobile (Gear VR/Go) game ID
I package for PC, send it to alpha channel on desktop dashboard
I package for Go, send it to alpha channel on mobile dashboard
I then share platform services
I test run the PC version with an S online, retrieve the OculusID
Put the Oculus ID in the Go (now Quest) version, and it works.
You cannot uase any social services without a Quest app ID, and you need to be greenlighted before by Oculus for that (good luck).
They are suppose to open the store to professional apps this fall, but you'll have to use the 999 USD$ Quest-business edition to access these key-only apps.
So in short you can test single-person avatars, but that's all you can do right now. :)
