When Apple does something new, everyone else generally has it in a few years.

There's gonna be Android for Eyeballs eventually and anyone will be able to make their app have virtual space widgets or something.

Of course that doesn't guarantee anyone will actually do anything cool with it, but they'll be able to.

> There's gonna be Android for Eyeballs eventually

How many Android for eyeballs has Google released already? I count at least 3.

- Whatever Cardboard was using (2013ish)

- Daydream platform (2016ish)

- Whatever Samsung Gear VR used (2018ish)

All of them nice gimmicks, but also commercial failures and abandoned.

I think with the Oculus, at least when developing with Unity, you target the Android platform. I'll admit I've never actually looked at what is under the hood in the Quest.
