> I am still waiting on the news that they are killing the quest headset though.

That would be sad. I've never owned a Quest, but the technology is starting to be very impressive. I would consider buying a new generation one.

It's unreal what the Quest headsets can do. Go look up "questnav." Robots on holonomic drivetrains moving at 20 ft/s while strafing and spinning, maintaining perfect pose tracking using nothing but a Quest 3S strapped into a 3D printed bracket. And with basically zero latency. Oh, programmed by high schoolers btw. It's astonishing.

I wouldn’t consider this the end of the matter, and given the past few years experience with Meta yet more layoffs are absolutely possible.

Related to the quest, the horizon worlds team was largely let go (around 1000 employees) earlier in the year and are not part of this latest 10 percent etc.

I think the Reuters article that preceded this said it would be 10% on 5/20, with more to come throughout 2026

20% is the outlook for the whole year. Wait and see :)

10% May 10% November
