Does anyone else read it is “Occultus?” or is it just me?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

In an email sent to users, the company says it will delete Oculus accounts on March 29th, 2024, preventing you from reactivating or retrieving your apps, in-app purchases, store credits, and more.

Meta stopped letting users log in to their Oculus accounts in January 2023.

If you’ve got a Quest gathering dust in a drawer somewhere, now’s your last chance to migrate your Oculus account to a Meta one.

From there, you’ll be able to access all of the same games, data, and other purchases saved to your Oculus account.

Several of us here at The Verge received the email, including a couple of my colleagues who have already converted their Oculus accounts to Meta.

The Verge reached out to Meta with a request for more information but didn’t immediately hear back.

The original article contains 279 words, the summary contains 132 words. Saved 53%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I got my rift s shelved because broken cable and replacement costs more than used quest 2. I don't even bother migrating, as all my games are on steam.

I don't get the angry comments... Oculus 1 only require an email address, because people didn't want to have to link their oculus account with their Facebook account.

...I don't know about Oculus 2, but the article is saying that Oculus 3 only requires a Meta account... It's not saying it has to be linked to your Facebook account.

Your account will just switch from being with Oculus, to being with Meta... It doesn't say anything about this suddenly linking your Facebook account to your Oculus/Meta account.

I like my Q3 a lot.

Meta also own Instagram and Threads... And you don't have to link those two services either.

...that's a lot more account separation than Google gives you. It's gets some people's phone, email, location, and search history.
