While the Linux support of ALVR is still quite rough due to various issues with SteamVR, ALVR is a very promising way to stream VR games to your headset via Wi-Fi and a new release is out now with v20.9.1.

Wait you’re using a quest on Linux via WiFi? Q3? VR is what is stopping me from switching to Linux on my main. Are we there yet?

I use a quest 1 on Linux.(According to the alvr the quest 3 is also fully supported) Played about the last half of half life on Linux.

However some VR games just don’t run well under proton I still have windows installed for that. Even if i didn’t boot into windows for a half year now.

Also first recommend installing Linux in dual boot with windows if you don’t know if al your programs/games work. Nowadays most stuff works but you can always keep windows for just in case.
