There aren’t many viable alternatives, so I do understand it. Valve Index is probably the most free but it’s expensive and starting to become out of date. The Reverb G2 will get no further updates in 2025, and will require you to stay on an old version of Windows (and using Windows in general isn’t great from a data privacy perspective). Any of the remaining alternatives are expensive and/or very niche.
It sucks, and I hope Valve does come out with the rumoured Deckard headset, because we need something that is well supported and not tied to the whims of Facebook or Microsoft.
