Dear Meta,
As a Developer who prefers to use open source solutions, I am deeply disappointed with the way you neglect Linux/Open-Source Developers and users.
Yes,there is a bare minimum support which is a bit behind on the new features and it's clearly visible that you prioritize your partnership with Unity and Unreal Engine over open source developers. Let me guess, your marketing department decided we are not worth the effort.
Also a friendly reminder that your OS is still Android. It would be nice of you if you'd stop mutilating it and share the kernel sources.
Now the input as a business owner.
Your privacy policy is violating mine with your invasive behavior, excessive logging and data collection. So far I was able to re-activate device offline and disable most the bloatware, alongside with blocking ongoing traffic to your servers. Why does it need to be that way?
See, AndroidXR is on the way to take your market share. Your best strategy is to adapt. Since your Horizon OS is based on the android, think about abandoning it and migrating to AndroidXR,
Rethink your aggressive policies that force users to use social features before it's too late...
There can be compromises:
The least you can do now after you cursed Oculus startup with your social platform and privacy policies is to to reflect on my input. Oculus Quest 3 can be so much more if you let the developers explore it's true potential, You might have the biggest share of the VR market, but thanks to you partnership with 2 game engines, neglection of the open source community and aggressive policies all you have is a flooded market place with look alike content. The VR hype is over. People are craving for something new, so why don't you lead the way by letting the open source community in?

I'm so frustrated with this Meta crap,I've had this 500 headset for two months and have yet had any good help getting my Quest 3 running. Somehow my system is tied into a business account which I cant reverse out of it.So I have been totally locked out of using this 500 paper weight.

@sunshine.458647 factory reset the headset and set it up with a different email address.
