3/ @boztank talking about some ecosystem stats for VR apps.
Philosophically they want to make ecosystem more open & how some apps have onboarded via the App Lab. Will push towards openness.

1/ Starting now is the #ARVRPolicyConf22 led by @XRAssociation & @ITIFdc.


I'll be tuning in & covering the talks in thread🧵👇

I expect the framing will be business-friendly as XRA is a trade organization representing Meta, Unity, MSFT, Sony, & Google.
2/ @XRAssociation's Liz Hyman opens the #ARVRPolicyConf22 & mentions they just launch a 4-page #HowXRWorks infographic yesterday called “Into the Digital World: XRA’s Guide to Immersive Technology”
xra.org/howxrworks/
3/ Reality Caucus co-chair @repdarrellissa gives the opening keynote at #ARVRPolicyConf22.
delbene.house.gov/news/documents…

Says that they were able to include instructions for immersive technology for the National Science Foundation & insert AI language into the THUD bill.

Meta is rolling out their Meta accounts today.

They’re introducing a follower model option, which will be interesting to see how that works with a medium that is primarily synchronous.

Blog overview
oculus.com/blog/getting-s…

You can still use Oculus acct on Quest 1 until 2023. ImageImage
2/ I migrated my account and made it “Open to everyone” to follow + “Anyone can see this profile.”

Friends are now called “Mutuals” and folks who you’d don’t follow but follow you are followers who can track your activities.

See
store.facebook.com/help/accounts/…

store.facebook.com/help/quest/art… ImageImageImageImage
3/ The new language around Mutuals as Friends and “follow requests” is confusing.

A “follow request” should really be named “mutual follow request” as accepting a “follow request” is the same as accepting a friend request.

“Should I let this person follow me?”= friending them. Image
