Facebook are really keen to be the ones with the userbase for what they see as the future. It’s hard to think of facebook being unseated as the go-to platform for connecting with friends (probably easier for us to imagine, but still pretty hard). Facebook is king simply because they were the first to reach a critical mass.
They were losing money hand over first in the VR space just to try to be the top player with the biggest userbase in the VR space. I’m not sure if this is still true with the hiked price for the Quest 2. I haven’t really paid attention to the VR space for a few years but from the Steam hardware survey it seems ownership is holding steady at around 2%, so mass adoption seems a while away and I doubt the Quest 3 will change that.
