I want to get started with VR gaming in Linux and am looking at a headset. What are you guys using? Oculus 3 seems to be popular but I assume there are some caveats.

    The best three brands with natively-supported hardware:

    • HTC's Vive series headsets
    • Bigscreen's Beyond
    • Valve's Index

    Pretty much everything else requires a lot more tinkering than just launching SteamVR/OpenVR applications.

    Some helpful links for diagnosing compatibility:
