No trouble with motion sickness (although in low light the windows can shift slightly as the tracking gets less accurate, which isn't the most pleasant). Thanks to a remote desktop viewer (my desktop is running Linux, so I'm using AnyDesk) I'm able to use desktop tools like Blender and GIMP and work for hours without taking off the headset. This wouldn't be possible without the Bobo M3 headstrap, which 1) takes the weight off the front of my face making it comfortable for that length of time and 2) allows you to swap out magnetically attached batteries on the fly. This is my first project doing this and it's for this week's 48-hour Ludum Dare game jam, so I'm mostly taking the headset off for food breaks and that's it; which also gives the depleted batteries time to charge.

I'm very intrigued, Dan Sup is one of the most interesting people working in the fediverse these days, and I'm very curious about anything he puts forward.
Your Name is one of my most favourite films, it's about bodyswapping.
Evangelion 1-4 are incredible sci-fi, but the TV series it's based on is arguably superior (or at least, should really be watched first).
Shin Ultraman is very fun if you like campy live action sci-fi.
I just moved my Mastodon server from masto.host to being self hosted on a Raspberry Pi because of the server costs (which increase automatically on masto.host if you exceed the plan limits).
The CRTC absolutely needs to adapt and relegislate/reinforce CanCon for the digital era. Ensuring Canadian artists get represented in Canada on some of the biggest streaming platforms is super important.
There needs to be a film about the FOSS movement that matches the vibes of 1995's cyberspace masterpiece Hackers.
Lemmy is definitely a more male space than I think even reddit was, and that does affect the tone of certain conversations. It really is a whiplash coming here from Mastodon sometimes and seeing a very different vibe.
Definitely a long way off from how active they were a year or two ago.
My early impressions are certainly quite positive, I love how experimental it is and very willing to explore new gameplay styles. Certainly curious to see what the metascore ends up being, probably higher than Link's Awakening HD?
Cryptobros fuck off
Completely unique and very difficult to experience with alternative hardware nowadays (compared to the PSP which can be played on nearly everything). The games library is incredibly unique because small budget games still had a big chance to succeed.
I actually haven't tried Immersed so I can't really compare it, but this is just using the usual Quest window management, no special app. Godot has recently been released on the Quest app store and runs natively. I've then sideloaded a few Android apps to help with development: Material File Manager from F-Droid, AnyDesk for remote desktop work with Linux (mostly for Blender), and I've seen someone using Git through Termux, will likely employ that for larger projects in the future. SFTP through Material File Manager handles moving files between the Quest and my Desktop.
I've not tried any other Quest 3 headstraps (aside from the stock one), but for me comfort is king. I've previously owned a Quest 1, which I added a halo headstrap to, but it was still crazy uncomfortable for more than half an hour or so. Before that I owned a Rift CV1, which I also found uncomfortable after more than an hour, despite attempts to modify it for comfort. The Bobo M3 is the first time I've actually felt comfortable enough to use VR for literally hours at a time. It's insane that it took seven years of being a VR enthusiast for me to finally find something like that.
