Don’t like it, but I do think the world building tools are quite decent. Out of all the social apps I’ve enjoyed banter the most so far with it’s physics based movement.

Nice! Is it possible to resize the windows? I haven’t seen anyone do that yet

I‘m not defending them here. I‘m just saying that the Quest 2 will probably go a different way.

Most of the things they’ve ended support on were failures (Oculus Go), were sold for a very short time with not many users (Quest 1) or turned out to be not the future in their eyes (basically everything PCVR).

Quest 2 has been sold for a long time and still is, has tens of millions of users and is clearly the path that they’ve decided to focus their energy on.

Again, they absolutely shouldn’t leave people hanging and at the very least have a buy back program or something similar. I‘m not trying to excuse their behavior.

They’ve definitely left some people hanging in the past, which sucks. It does feel like Quest 2 will have a longer support though, since it has such a large user base and is still being sold new.

In an ideal world, Apple intelligence will take care of this. But it’ll probably just highlight more important notifications while everything else is still there a swipe away.

Force them (including myself) to implement dark mode, and soon dark app icons.

If I remember correctly they’ve since removed that rule

At what point was the OG Quest not chained to Metas shitty software? Are you talking about their operating system or games/content, or account to login?

With every update it’s broken in a slightly different way. Currently my Quest Pro controllers simply don’t connect. And every second time I put on my headset I have to put it to sleep again before I can interact with the menu.

I‘m pretty happy with the hardware though.

I’d be perfectly happy with a Quest 3 style version with plastic, lower resolution screens and no front display or a tethered battery back. I think the most important difference is the OS and software.

Are you talking about Vision Pro?

I wouldn’t call focusing on a cheaper headset bad news, if true.

Imo they should just stop showing things that aren’t ready.

Even if it’s not “mainstream” yet I think it serves a purpose and I’m happy they’ve released it. Also: no one should wear this in public.

Hard disagree on most of these points. Lower price seems obvious, but everything else on that list is optional.

I’d love to see games & motion controllers, social platforms is basically games. “All day” ergonomics are a stretch and 99% of people won’t care about a stylus.

I’d say less friction is more important: no cable, lighter headset. Maybe even glasses form factor before it can go fully mainstream.

Am I misremembering or did they say you could use it in the dark? I thought it was using infrared to light up your hands and track itself.

Hiking ≠ walking

They had walking directions probably from the start, but there’s new topographical map now.

Are you talking about asking Siri about bedtime stories? Because that has been a thing for a while. Apple said that AI stuff was coming later this summer with a waitlist, so none of the new stuff should be there yet.

It’s not yet available, even in beta, right?
