A ‘$3,500 Chastity Belt’: Early Apple Vision Pro Adopters Alarmed to Learn VR Porn Doesn't Work (www.404media.co)

The general consensus in that thread is that, while the Vision Pro can play "flat" porn videos on sites like PornHub, there is currently not an easy way to play 180 degree side-by-side videos on the Vision Pro, which is how most commercial VR porn is filmed.

Text is illegible on other headsets? Apple democratizing app development? What planet are you on??

Oh I get it now. You're either trolling, or are some kind of apple shill.

But even if everything you said was true, it still doesn't mean it makes sense for anyone to buy apple's VR headset right now. Except for maybe the developers you were talking about, but if Devs are the only ones buying it, who are they developing apps for?

Also if you still think the iOS market "blows Android out of the Water" then you're still living in 2007, bud

Yes, actual substantial amounts of text on other headsets is dogshit because the resolution sucks. You can't get close on resolution without spending almost as much on a dumb display as Apple's entire package.

Yes, the number of single individuals and small teams actually making money on app development is far higher through iOS than anywhere else. You can't make money on Android at all. Consequentially, today (not in 2007), the play store is still a fucking dumpster fire with a terrible library. Big platforms do both, sometimes. Small devs don't.
