They didn’t sell well.

That’s worse than just not maintaining code. They could stop maintaining it, but keep the current version active. Instead, they remove it entirely, and now a physical object that was purchased becomes ewaste.

Damn did I invest in the wrong horse.

Depends, did you invest in stock or products.
If stock you are probably fine, Microsoft is very good at making money.
If products, you are one of the people they make money on. And they couldn’t care less if you lose out.BreadstickNinja@lemmy.world 1 month ago
It’s amazing how good Microsoft is at making money relative to how bad they are at making products.

Aand that’s why i’m not an early adopter. Especially not of products from big IT.

That’s why there are less and less early adopters overall. Big tech cut the branch they were sitting on years ago and we’ve been in a free fall ever since.

That’s why I choose open source whenever I can.

I’m sure glad I didn’t get the HP Reverb G2 when it launched.

Looks like Monado is our only hope. Pathetic support from Microsoft but hopefully it will be fully supported in Linux in the next few years.

I might try one second hand if they’re cheap. Can any of these work without some idiotic third-party account?
… I’d replace the padding on any used device, though, that is a little gross now that I consider it.

It’s worked pretty well ok for me, but I only really sim race so it’s all stationary and no controllers.
Highly recommend setting up Envision so it can build and setup the Monado/XR environment
