Interesting, does that mean we might get root support on the old unsupported Quest devices too? The Q1 is already discontinued and no more updates yet still locked down, and they did something similar for the Ofulus go, providing a rooted boot image for it

Next would be recovery tools too, so they're not paperweights

Pretty sure Carmack had to fall on his own sword to get the Go unlocked. Not sure anyone still there is as passionate about unlocking old devices, but maybe this is a sign of changing times...

    That's true, it sucks only the Go got unlocked, I hope they let the older Quests do so too in the future, especially since I think the Q2 is going to be deprecated soon-ish too, that'd certainly be nice
