    Know any good AR/VR display environments for Linux? I like the idea of using lightweight AR/VR but I haven’t heard of anything open source that’s even close to production ready on devices like these.

      Not sure what you’re asking for here. AR/VR is just a display technology. Steam VR obviously runs fine on Linux.

      I’ve been using Sunshine for Linux with Moonlight on my AVP and that works great. The native Moonlight port for AVP is still very much a buggy, crashy WIP, but the iPad version is a decent enough standby.

      Honestly, using virtual Mac Display on AVP is so, so, so good, that I want that functionality everywhere… from any and all of my devices. Sunshine + Moonlight is currently the most promising path forward, IMO.

        They don’t! ChromeOS is a partially closed source Linux distro, after all. I just don’t know of any good pieces of software that aren’t part of proprietary products like the Quest or this thing.

        I don’t expect a closed source window manager to get much attention on Linux, but I guess it’s possible. Do you know any, perhaps?

          I assume these folks implemented their own AR stack, so the Linux world would indeed to win much with them being here, other than convincing people to use Linux in general.
