I love Linux but it really does need more VR support.

Yeah, I'd love to get a VR headset, but there just aren't even games to play on Linux, and the headsets with good Linux support are either expensive or hard to find.

Hopefully that improves, I imagine it's stopping people from switching to Linux.

Even the Index, Valve’s own headset has had broken functionality for years with no fixes in sight. Valve refuses to fix big stuff like the cameras, base stations not turning on, or even automatic audio switching.

Not to mention steamvr reprojection is completely broken.

Huh, that's too bad. I guess I'll keep waiting then...
