Technically FB says they won't require an FB account until 2023. However they make it a pain in the ass to use a Quest without a FB account, and presumably your device will be a paperweight in a year once the FB requirement rolls out
Quest2 requires a FB account today and for everybody, the 'until 2023' is only for old Oculus accounts used on old devices, i.e. Quest1 and Rift/RiftS.
Nope! Mine works perfectly fine with Oculus accounts made within the month; I literally just factory reset the thing and made another to verify that the comments saying otherwise were wrong, and yeah, they're wrong.
Deep down he knows that all he did was create a cleaner version of MySpace at the perfect moment. He's used that lottery ticket to acquire companies built by people smarter than he is, and he'll keep trying to tie their genuine innovation back to FB to soothe his fragile ego.
I would have said so too before his investments in VR. Instead of Google's pie in the sky moonshot projects, he picked a tech that was just out of reach and focused an enormous percent of the company on bringing it into the present. He will be hailed as a Jobsian genius if he actually pulls off the next general computing platform, but even if not, certainly caught my attention.
