Right now this mostly catalogues my own experiences, but it's a wiki, so feel free to chip in.
VRWiki is a central location for collecting knowledge about VR equipment and content, with an emphasis on content creation.


Note that MediaWiki can shit itself if you use an adblocker, so turn yours off if you run into issues. I don't do ads, although I may run self-hosted [https://matomo.org Matomo] for stats in the future.
