How many people are non-VR in VRChat?

I have been urging to try out VRChat for ages, but I don't have a headset yet, since I'm waiting for the Deckard or a cheaper PCVR headset that is up-to-date.

How many non-VR people do you see in VRChat? I kinda fear of being left out / discriminated against because of the lack of a headset.

Don't worry about what strangers on the Internet who you will never hear from again will think about you.

it is common enough. I have a few people on my friends list that are exclusively desktop users. Plus even people with headsets will use desktop occasionally just because strapping up can be a hassle, or they're traveling.

And if you find standing up constantly strange for the avatar there is an avatar addon gogoloco that makes it possible to have different poses like sitting laying and a few more

Hmm I haven't really used a sit down option yet. Somehow I'm still more shy solely because of being a desktop user. Hmm don't you mean the optional movesets that the avatar creators have made for that specific avatar? Like the default wave and others?

EDIT: Sorry I misinterpreted your message.

Its a plugin that avatar creators may add to there avi, you dont have to be shy because of being on desktop i used it to try vrchat before i invested in it

It used to be a status symbol but anymore nobody cares. Plus lots of movies you can just full screen.

I have over 100 hours in just the desktop mode alone, its still worth your time even without a headset.

I feel left out sometimes, there are tricks to get around it tho. (You will hold your arm out of you hold somthing, even if its invisable to everyone else)

🙋‍♂️ My PC could take VR(maybe), but i don't have one nor lots of space for it

Off yeah that's a bummer, space is definitely needed.
