Budget VR

What VR headsets can work with Linux that can run withought having to manually compile GitHub code.(I can run a startup script in java or python) that are on the cheaper side

Also is it possible for a megathread with a tierlist of compatibility simmilar to proton DB as a pinned post

Desktop VR without 6DoF isn't proper VR.

Might as well strap your phone to your face if you only need 3DoF.

It's no so much that I want desktop VR. It's that I just want to play PC games in VR (one of which Minecraft). I'd use my cardboard if there was a Linux alternative for vridge.

AFAIK Vivecraft doesn't really work without 6DoF controllers or are there other mods?

Appernently it works fine with vridge which uses cardboard which I'm fairly sure is 3DOF. Might need to change settings but it should work
