It's a good question. Here's my specific use case, I'm sure there are plenty more.
I have a golf simulator running in the cloud (AWS) on a g4dn.xlarge ec2 insurance.
At home, I use a raspberry pi 5 as a thin client. It plugs into a 4k projector and streams down the display of the cloud PC.
Because it's cheap and reliable, I can leave it in place sitting up on the ceiling attached to the projector. I wouldn't want to devote a more expensive laptop to the job - the raspberry pi 5 is just man enough for the job, powerful enough but only just.

- beachy 3y agoSounds interesting (but a bit above my pay grade). AWS uses a streaming tech called NICE DCV which runs in a browser (chromium) on my raspberry pi. I was using a RP 4 before, but the performance is noticeably better with the RP 5.
