Should Quest 3 vr developers become independent from Meta/Facebook?
Title.
I think the developers behind the Meta Quest 3 and 2 vr headsets used to be a independent company many years ago called Oculus, but then got bought by Meta / Facebook.
I have this feeling that Meta / Facebook, who are the creators of Instagram, Facebook, etc, are preventing the Meta Quest virtual reality headsets (VR Headsets) from being developed fully at full development power.
I think Meta / Facebook is preventing its Virtual Reality headset development team from developing VR headsets, and instead prioritizing Artificial Intelligence and other projects.
Plus, Meta / Facebook does not actually make money from its Virtual Reality headsets.
It makes most of its money from advertising on Facebook and Instagram, meaning Virtual Reality Headsets (VR headsets) such as the Meta Quest 3, are not a significant source of income or profit for it. I heard the VR headset part of the Meta / Facebook company is actually making Meta lose money instead of gain money.
With Oculus, the original developers of the Virtual Reality headsets, being bought out by Meta / Facebook, being severely mismanaged and big money spent on a Metaverse that didnt work, and there is already a Metaverse called VRChat, and then potentially being de-prioritized because VR Headsets were being developed and sold at a loss, paired with Meta / Facebooks actual money and income coming from advertising on Facebook and Instagram,
Should the Meta Quest virtual reality headset part of Meta / Facebook be sold off and become a independent company, similar to how it used to be Oculus before being bought my Meta / Facebook?
Instead of continuing to be run by Meta/Facebook, which actually makes all its money from advertising from Instagram and Facebook, never made a profit from Virtual Reality Headsets to begin with, made wrong decisions and developed some Metaverse thing which was worse than a product that already existed on the market, called VRChat, and is increasingly spending more and more money on Artificial Intelligence?
Seems like Meta/Facebook has a virtual reality headset part of the company but actually hates it, and both sides would be better off if Meta Quest vr headsets became a independent company.
VR headsets are probably better owned by companies that actually want to develop VR headsets, not a company that makes all its money from doing other things like advertising on Facebook and Instagram, and is increasingly trying to become a Artificial Intelligence company instead.
Meta/Facebook leadership might not even want the Virtual Reality Headset (VR Headset) part of the company anymore, and would much rather have it as a seperate company, gone to do their own thing, and goodbye forever.
