you can't watch porn on the apple vision headsets?

[–] jaschen@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Not 3D porn. Just regular like you're looking at a monitor.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don’t watch porn, but you’d better believe I downloaded some 35GB 3D pron when I got my Index. If I DID watch porn, it would be the only kind I would ever watch. Incredible.

Apple is playing a losing game not allowing porn.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hella agree, I understand it’s complicated… but if I was into pron and it worked, what better a device?! I trust it’s more secure than Facebook shit, and it doesn’t need to be tethered to a computer strong enough to render a more-than-4k video that’s like 20-40GB?! While it’s still too expensive, the customer base would be WAY HIGHER.

I say this as a windows/linux user that uses an iPhone and iPad because their mobile devices are stellar. I’d never get a Vision Pro but they’re really missing out on a huge market of horny peeps

I agree with you on almost everything. I don't trust Apple or any big corp that sole(or soul) purpose is profits.

I trust the USPS more than Apple.

It's ok to watch porn.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

Yup, Apple shouldn't be deciding what I can and cannot watch on my screens.

okay, yea porn apps are not going to be allowed on the appstore. Does Oculus even have any in their store?

For either headsets you can still go through Steam link though, or sideload 'em

[–] jaschen@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

It's based on Android. So you basically sideload it by going to the 3D porn's website. So ya. 3d porn is great.
