i felt the same way but i was gifted one recently... it's still pretty awesome, and it runs android so you can put it in developer mode and sideload whatever you want...

i expected it to be locked down like apple, but no it's pretty sick.

see also: original NES Legend of Zelda ported to oculus...

I'm in a similar boat, however I was very disappointed to see that in order to enable developer mode you have to make/sign in with a Meta account and "register" as a developer with them.

i didn't like that either... but it was quick and free...
had to take a shower afterwards though...

Yeah, but you can't just enable developer mode on the device itself. You need Meta's blessing for that.

[-] xor@infosec.pub 6 points 5 months ago

not really their blessing, but yeah you have to create a developer account, agree to be part of a human centipede, and then you're in...

there's even an alternative side loading store call side quest that streamlines it and has a ton of stuff to download...
