I have to
agree - you just beat me to running this (lucky I doubled checked!!) 🙂
Here is some more info:
https://uploadvr.com/oculus-go-gone/
This will make the Oculus Go the
shortest selling VR system (not including the Microsoft Joystick). And kind of
contradicts all the previous comments from posters on the success of the
system?
This also reads quite clearly like
the end of interest in supporting further PC VR projects for the short term -
though not completely closing the door, (best to keep some options!)
Most of us had commented on this,
when Oculus Go had been removed from the Enterprise (Oculus for Business) initiative,
but now this seems to be the full stake through the heart - leaving the Mobile
VR community that supported GearVR and then Oculus Go in a difficult position.

Good golly, that tweet really does sound like the death knell for tethered PCVR from team Oculus.

apps after December 18, 2020 (though if you have a current Go app in the
Store, people will still be able to download and use it).

I don't agree - Oculus specifically states they'll now focus even more on RIft (=tethered VR):We’ll end sales of Oculus Go headsets this year as we double down on improving our offerings for Quest and Rift.
