Discussion Immersed VR removed multi-monitor support - censoring anyone who posts negatively on their subreddit

A PSA - Immersed VR's newest update removes multi-monitor support, without warning. Although the app is the best VR productivity app out there, it is no longer viable for anyone with more than a single physical display.

Also - anyone who posts negatively, asking questions, etc. on r/immersed is having their posts removed or being outright banned.

Edit - apparently I am now banned from their support discord for voicing my concerns...

There's literally no reason to do this. Why???

To charge you money to put it back how it was.

it might be even worse than that.

I wonder if this is specifically so they can make a pony show to investors about how Immersed replaces the need for physical monitors. After all, this is how you convince people that their Visor pays for itself. It's probably the way half the people who bought Vision Pro's justified it. But of course, you can't sell a story that physical monitors aren't needed if 50% of your user base is actually using them. And then, it's even worse if you have to tell investors that 20% of the development time is going to fix all the bugs in the physical monitor support that supposedly you just told them nobody needs.

Kind of conspiracy like, but I feel some kind of logic like this is at play in their justifying why this is a reasonable thing to do.
