Welcome to The Hitchhiker's Guide to VR. Bring a towel.
Right now this mostly catalogues my own experiences, but it's a wiki, so feel free to chip in.
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 Matomo for stats in the future.
