What headset should I be looking at now if I don't want an account? (sh.itjust.works)

I had the Oculus quest DK2 before oculus was bought by Facebook and enjoyed playing whatever people made, but the more Facebook locked everything down the less interested I became in VR.

Now you can't even play with a quest unless you have a Facebook account, and it seems so easy to get locked out of your account on purpose or accidentally.

Are there unlocked VR headsets that I can just have fun with instead of being locked into one company and their products?

Thanks

As far as I know there are no headsets that don’t require an account

For me the important part is that the headset doesn't require a specific account. As long as I can use it with multiple ecosystems there isn't a singular point of failure, for example if the manufacturer stops supporting it.
