The real problem is when Steam drops support on W10...

Runs great in Linux Mint

The problems is the games under it. Most notably game with anti-cheat and Oculus Rift desktop games. Does the Oculus client, revive and games work under linux?

A surprising amount of games support linux anti-cheat now: https://areweanticheatyet.com

Oculus does not work, but that's expected for a Facebook product... Valve Index and HTC Vive work pretty good. I've personally played 5-10 VR games on linux with an Index I borrowed from a friend

Oh fuck Facebook. I haven't given them a cent. But there is no denying the amazing game studios they bought out for exclusives. Such as Ready at Dawn's Lone Echo. One of the best VR games period. I think I'll try to virtualize that specific use case and use linux for more gaming.

I will never buy a Quest. I am currently running first gen HTC Vive and my only savoir is the Valve Decard. Hang on gotta hit the copium.
