This article is misguided...the only cards which aren't in stock are those which are best for crypto mining.
So low end and high end stock is unaffected still though the GTX 1080 Ti is getting more and more popular.
VR doesn't need that much grunt and the GTX 1080 is easily good enough and no one wants them for mining as there is a problem with DDR5X memory still.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
