I don't believe I am wrong. Try to find a controller for the Rift or Rift S.
You may now want to argue that these devices are older. That is true, you mostly need replacement parts for older devices.
And software support? I do remember where Facebook forced me to make an account or the hardware would be unusable.
For me that was the argument to never buy hardware from Facebook again. Sure, it was Oculus at the time and even if technically the Rift and Rift S were solid products, I would thoroughly recommend to not become a private customer of Facebook for now. Maybe things have improved, because they certainly should.
