can we opt out now and still get the major updates?

[cybereality]

By default, customers in the main release channel will receive the new update to the Oculus desktop app itself, while the new Home and Dash features are opt-in after enabling a box in the settings. Classic Home will only be an option for a limited time, but you can still use it for the time being if you want. I think you'll see the new interface is a big improvement. Thanks.

I was thinking  that I want to opt out now only because I will forget much later when the PTC starts testing 1.23.  I do not want to be part of 1.23 but I do not want to loose what I have and also forget to opt out for 1.23

Where is the MSAA setting?

The 8x MSAA support is a new feature for developers to add in their titles. It's not a user configurable option, and will only be available with content that is updated to support this feature.

Ah ok, that clears it up - thanks much!

Suddenly every app I have started shows up in my library, stuff like chrome.exe and explorer.exe.

Great stuff, I held off on PTC as wanted to wait for any issues to be resolved, just checked my app version and it still says I'm on 1.20?, huh, did I miss an update or something!

Yeah but I just wondered why I'm not on 1.21, I know I'll probably get 1.22 in the next few days

Oh, 1.21 doesnt appear to have been released outside of the PTC, at least there was no forum post saying so anyways.
