I picked up a steam frame because I'm sucker for headsets that don't smell like zuckerberg. (and it's at least 2x cheaper than the vision pro)

While I enjoy some of the VR games I've played, mostly simulator types (star wars squadrons, elite dangerous), as well as the 'exercise style' (beat saber, pistol whip), and this kind of 'board game style' (moss, ... there is a d&d one i don't recall the name of). I'm actually very keen on attempting productivity in the glasses.

The frame is easily the lightest, or at least, the most manageable headset I've tried and the most comfortable long term. Coming from the Index the screen resolution is much better and in my testing last night (It just showed up on my doorstep monday) it was working out pretty well in just the packed in 'desktop' mode (just one 'virtual monitor'). Paired a BT keyboard, installed goland and several other tools and was able to comfortably read all the windows without even tweaking things like themes, font-sizes, etc. All running directly on the headset.

I've seen some addon's that tweak the desktop environment, noteably frametop (https://github.com/Frametop/frametop) which i'm keen on trying out. Apparently it also allows you to set up remote 'monitors' as additional 'screens' in environment, it seems like it should support pulling my macbook screen into it via VNC.

I guess all to say I'm excited to explore what a 'vr native' productivity environment could look like beyond what i'm getting now, which is essentially virtual monitors.
