[plucky matrix]

hoi, have you looked at gnome network displays?

[robust jewel]

doesnt work

also i need a sink and a source for that

gnome network display is only source right?

[plucky matrix]

i don't know to be honest

it doesn't have an archwiki page, i just remembered hearing it existed

[robust jewel]

ye i spent over a week on it when my laptop is still windows

in windows it works plug and play

but in linux i couldnt find a alternative

[plucky matrix]

yeah its not a very used feature

there's a piece of software that allows you to extend your display on any OS and device.. including your phone
