Meta opens Muse gadget SDKs, but Home Link stays locked
Original: Meta open-sourced the Muse gadget SDKs, but its own Home Link can't be reflashed
Meta has released the software development kits for its Muse gadget platform as open source, a move aimed at letting developers build accessories for its mixed-reality ecosystem. However, the company's own Home Link device cannot be reflashed with custom software, leaving a gap between Meta's openness messaging and its locked-down hardware. Observers are debating whether the open sourcing is genuine developer empowerment or a limited gesture.
Why now: The contrast between open-sourced SDKs and closed firmware raises questions about how committed Meta really is to openness
