"Publicly available data indicates that Facebook currently controls around 50% of the PC VR market and the company currently faces no serious competition in the standalone VR space."

I think the biggest obstacle Facebook had to overcome, was the original Oculus executives who were not 100% onboard with Facebook's plan. I think that the Lenovo partnership was a last minute resort to dealing with some departures. Yet the Lenovo partnership is often treated as a sign that Facebook doesn't care about the Rift. I'm confident that Facebook will get back on track now that the smoke has cleared with all the organizational changes, and we'll see a stronger Rift (on par with the CV1 we all know and love) soon enough.
My personal opinion is the Lenovo deal was thrown together in the 11th hour to try to squelch the increasing outcry from the community for a new Rift.
The release was all about the Quest up until about a month before release, then they revealed the Rift S to be released alongside the Quest.
I do hope you are right on the stronger Rift prediction.

I predict psvr2 2021. Sony will lose there tremendous lead if they wait until 2022.
They'll lose their 'tremendous' lead regardless, if of course you are referring to console sales. MS will school Sony on revenue.
I dont know how you can say that when in fact sony vr is kicking everyone's butt with an inferior system. Psvr still provides a good enough experience that I bought it for their vr exclusives and I still had a blast. No one is close to psvr sales. Their next headset will most likely be wirless much better tracking etc. on a much more powerful system.

Been holding out on getting any new HMDYeah this is the most prevalent theme for me as well. Although I must admit, having to "wait" isn't as painful as I thought it would me, now that I've started to enjoy flat vanilla gaming again. Nintendo Switch for Christmas, and I recently bought the PC game, Sekiro. Which recently won the Steam Game of the Year award:I'm really enjoying Sekiro!
