Bruh im looking at buying a used quest 2 because they offer such a compelling value. But seriously do I have to make an account just to use the damn thing? What if I only use it teathered to my pc?
I have one that I used to use with my PC (switched to linux and it's a pain in the ass to do is why I stopped). I would still have to log in to start the app to hook to my PC.
Yes. It's much like Android, iOS and Windows where you are the product so you can't do literally anything without an account.
Basically bs when it comes to Android. Android will run offline, with no account, degoogled, fully non-gms, or all of the above. As well as inside and outside containers, emulators and virtual machines.
(Some devices and vendors may lead to less choice than others.)
Yes, if you hack it. No one distributes it that way. You're being needlessly pedantic.
