Would be great if the Meta Quest could be jailbroken to run SteamOS

If you have a pc to run steam, you don’t even need to jailbreak

I think they meant standalone VR without Meta or Android.

Quest 1, all firmwares, Quest 2 and 3 on some non latest hardware, can already be rooted, so that's not the bottleneck.

https://github.com/FreeXR/exploits is a good starting point for that. I think replacing the Android userland would be the tricky part here.

If you are interested in the topic I suggest joining the Discord, it's a pretty active place.

I have few rooted Quests, only some Quest2 still left unrooted.
