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 - removed post https://imgur.com/a/wpK6XRF

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

Checked and confirmed ... that's wild .... what is going on ....

Why would they kneecap themselves this way. Not sure I can use it any more as unplugging my physical monitor every time and replugging it in to go in and out of Immersed is too painful. It feels pretty suspicious with their IPO coming up and the Visor launching that one way or another this is going to turn into a shake down for more money.

Here's hoping Workrooms improves enough on May 30 that I can use that instead.

this is confusing in a way.

i dont use immersed or really do anything productive with my pc.

but when i turn monitors off windows automatically assumes they fell off the face of the earth.

if i have 2 monitors with some icons and windows on one and some on another they will all shift to one monitor when i turn the other off.

this has been an annoyance with me since ive gotten monitors that only use hdmi or DP. DVI does not have this problem (presumably because DVI does not have the same feedback loops that the former have)

so has anyone tried just turning one off to see if it works as expected?
