I dual boot Windows for VR and Fusion360. Do alternatives exist? Yes, but it's just not something I want to spend hours tinkering with for what I perceive to be a worse experience.

I tried ALVR but it kept disconnecting if it connected at all. VD on Windows works flawlessly every time.

I heard of an ALVR alternative made by Collabora, you could try it. Dunno if it's good or not.

Thanks for the heads up. It looks like it's called ElectricMaple. I'll definitely give it a go, although having no updates on the main branch in 6 months doesn't fill me with confidence.
