If do not want to use Facebook (aka. Meta) account, you can use Oculess. It works pretty well. https://github.com/basti564/Oculess
A sideloadable tool that lets you unlink your Facebook account from Oculus Quest.
Features
- (Temporarily/Partially) Remove Oculus / FaceBook account (only use for disabling updates and telemetry)
- (Fully) Log Out of Oculus / FaceBook account (aka. Disable Oculus Companion)
- Disable telemetry
- Disable Updates

Pros and Cons:
- The catch is you'll lose access to Oculus Store apps because the entitlement check used upon launching them will no longer function.
- System apps like Oculus TV and Browser will also no longer launch, and casting won't work.
- You can still sideload hundreds of apps from SideQuest [sidequestvr.com] though, and if you want to keep browsing the web in VR you can sideload Firefox Reality [github.com].
- You can still use Oculus Link to play PC VR content, but only if you stay signed into Facebook on the Oculus PC app.
- Virtual Desktop won't work because it's a store app, but you can sideload free alternatives such as ALVR [github.com].

Hope they fix it as for now it has ruined my 4-player Walkabout Mini Golf plans. We're already done it before, but v34 will break it if you turn on that setting, even once, and then turn it off again.

edit: Sorry, didn't see the box saying I'd get $50 credit in an email.
I went with the Mystical80 approach. Signed up for Amazon Visa, got instant approval and $200 gift card. Did promo for first reload onto that gift card of $100, got $10 bonus added. Used OCULUS 50 code ($50 credit back), used Oculus referral link from someone in this thread ($30 back upon Oculus activation).
Total out of pocket: $100 plus tax. I will be left with $60 in Amazon credit and $30 in Oculus credit, so effective cost = $10 plus tax.
If you use Discover card with 5% Target category this quarter, you get 5% off the order total 299, including tax. $14.95 minimum, $15.88 in my case.
Splitting dollars but hey, this is SD.

Also think I'm going to get the Allstate protection plan this time. I've already banged it on the ceiling fan a couple times

Note this is a USB-A to USB-C cable, and it'll have to be a USB 3.1 port to work. You can get a USB-C to USB-C cable instead, but my PC doesn't have USB-C so I went with this one.
