It's a pity that the next Lynx headset won't run Android XR anymore. I think the startup would have benefited from its ecosystem, and especially its content. But I still root for them, Stan Larroque is a great guy and I hope will manage to deliver a great headset

Valve announced the Steam Frame headset. It's surely great news, but I'm not convinced about its contribution to the big picture of XR.
