Corroded

If you are really sold on the idea of consoles then don’t discount modding an older system like an Xbox 360 or PS3, once they are set up you can just pick a game and go.

https://consolemods.org/wiki/Main_Page is a good starting point if OP is interested in going in that direction.

I believe it also requires you to have an individual as a contact to synchronize messages.

Personally you need to decided what features are important to you. From my understanding anything connected to Meta requires logging into Facebook to use. For me that is a big no not to mention that I’m a linux user.

That reminds me of Oculess. I’ve never really looked too much into it but I wonder how well it works.
