Meta Quest 3 - Privacy workaround? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

submitted 3 months ago by RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com to c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Is there any up-to-date method to keep the Meta Quest 3 as privacy friendly as possilbe? I know it can't be made perfect, but maybe some known working block lists etc.?

i'm thinking about getting one but their data hoarding is the reason i don't want to. Unless i can somehow make it less invasive.

I got rid of the Q2 a couple months ago but never had issues.

I used Virtual Desktop, not SteamLink

You don't see a lot of issues because the few people who ever used SteamVR on Linux ran away screaming and never came back¹

¹I made that up, but it's bad

Can you play VR games in Virtual Desktop? Like BeatSaber for example?

[–] bruhbeans@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Yes, works best of the solutions I've tried

Oh i didn't know that!

How did you find the latency?

Best of the solutions I tried (steam link for quest, ALVR, oculus link)
