I didn't know about this project and will look into it for future use when family inevitably complains about their phones every time they get a new one without asking me what I think of it first. It's the quest 3 headset I was talking about. It does come with some apps I haven't tried that give the impression of bloat but I would be surprised if the device is within the scope of the project.

I did manage to install obtanium and in turn a bunch of other stuff though. Just needed to wait for windows to reboot an additional time, and now it seems to take an additional keypress to get rid of the lock screen before the password box. I'll probably just try to find the time to figure out what was wrong on the Linux side of things for the future.
