Affter updating my Quest 3S’s operating system I’m only getting 10fps running VRChat natively, when before I was getting 40-60 FPS. I’ve tried clearimg cache, uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing’s helped

What updated, VRChat or the operating system?

I have a quest 3s and I occasionally have to force it to restart when everything gets laggy.

Ah, I fired up my quest 3s yesterday and VRChat was running at 8fps until I cleared out the guardian and re did it. Might have had to restart the headset as well, not sure.
