You don’t need a facebook account a meta account was available as an alternative.
That’s great right? Much better!!!
I don’t know if meta accounts still exist… The whole migration was a huge mess. The oculus brand was much cooler. I wouldn’t have bought my oculus quest 1 if it had been a facebook product back then.
Facebook has owned oculus since before the CV1, but I agree it was much less intergrated and still felt like a separate brand. I’m definitely biased as fuck, but “oculus” is infinitely better than “meta”. Much better sounding name.
I just made a meta account to migrate my oculus account, but I can’t find any way to do it on PC without a quest. I don’t have a quest, so I guess I’m fucked?

Actually yes. The problem with needing a Facebook account was that it was part of an unrelated service (social network, messenger, etc.). Meta accounts are separate accounts for VR only, much like the previous Oculus accounts.

Wow I wasn’t aware of that…
You can try to contact them through the
oculusmeta store live chat. When I migrated they were very helpful.Can’t you do it in the mobile app?

Makes me think…
It really is better.
I don’t trust them not to associate these accounts together with Facebook accounts internally. But that’s a bit conspiracyish.
Well considering they basically did just that with Instagram and WhatsApp, it wouldn’t be surprising if they did.
