Local gamer-ish (sysadmin) chiming in as requested,

because the Oculus is Meta (formerly known as "Facebook") deadware (
https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/28/22751297/meta-oculus-quest-need-facebook-account-login-password/)
these days.

Several mainstream alternatives (https://thevrreviews.com/best-vr-headsets/
) exist, some are even open source ( https://github.com/relativty/Relativty
)

Unless you like having gatekeeping drama and ads shoved directly into your
eyes from the social network that exists to harvest your Meta (ha!)
data...avoid the Oculus for literally any alternative option.
