User created environments
Allowing user created environments for the room and surroundings. They could be available through a community tab/section.
Maybe even with a voting system.

While I can’t speak to user created exterior environments / skyboxes, we did add the ability to import custom geometry as the basis for your Home. Just like importing your own custom items, you can place a .glb file in your My Imports\Custom Homes folder and use that object as a template for brand new Homes! I’ll mark this idea as ‘Started’ as it seems like half of this submission was completed.

I don't mind if they drop the community sharing option (to protect the value of sell-able crates and ensure a minimum quality level). Just let us at least make stuff for personal use (using a CAD tool of our choice and exporting to a standard format). Perhaps make it visible to others when they visit but they have to pay a nominal fee to copy someone else's design. That way everyone's home becomes a potential store for Oculus. We get our personalization and Oculus gets a revenue stream. Win-win.

User created objects/environments are unfortunately unlikely to be added because Oculus has plans to charge for unlockable crates (some of the code already exists). They want the stuff to be incentives to buy games from their store and/or to buy loot crates from them. Allowing us to create our own content would reduce their ability to monetize. Which really sucks because VR is a perfect match for user generated content.

I definitely want to see this. I want complete layout customization. Right now everyone has the same room with different decorations.

YES PLZ. I've created many maps in my lifetime, the ability to use one as a VR homeland would be amazing!
