Great article and also outlines why I'm not switching today. I already have to deal with plenty of shit during my work hours, gaming is a way for me to relax and wind down. I don't want to think or deal with a sub optimal gaming experience, to then have to bug fix in my spare time.

Envision allows you to use Monado if you have a wired headset or WiVRn if you have a quest or other wireless headset and can also install WlxOverlay or Stardust as overlays.
