I wish that would be the case for VR too. But with VR there is lots of stuff just not being supported unfortunately. If you have any Headset that basically isn't the Index good luck using Linux. Also there are still Software issues with certain stuff there that won't properly work or not at all. I once tried Linux but unfortunately ran into several issues which caused me going back to windows 11.

Nah, I have an index and was not able to get steam vr running. Its problems everywhere in VR on linux I guess.

Oh i expected the hardware that basically is made for the software to actually work with SteamVR always. Guess I'm wrong. But unfortunately proves my post more true.

Nah, for most people SteamVR works ootb with the Index... but SteamVR is also quite buggy.

Mmh ok. But people without Index and for example Quest or Pico are pretty screwed i guess since you can't install Virtual Desktop or the oculus thing. ALVR exists but i always had weird issues with it regarding stability and image quality.
