Can you please add screen refresh rate and usage of adaptive sync? Those would be interesting to track, especially when compared with X11 / Wayland sessions data.

Nice, except for no DP connector even through USB-C. I'd take that over HDMI any time. Computers today should all have DP.

Great to see the progress on open positional tracking algorithms. VR makers don't publish them. It's also annoying there is even a need to reverse engineer things, instead of using open documentation.
