I'm interested to know how you believe basic honesty (1) or choice (2) would violate Signals goals, or impact them negatively. And I'm not talking about something obnoxious like a cookie-banner here, something in the fine-print w

And now you have to manage the cloud instead. Which turns out to be more hassle and with no overlap with the actual problem you are trying to solve. So not only do you spend time on the wrong thing you don't even know how it works. And

One thing to note here with these kind of tools, on displayport they typically only allow commands on the active input. Once you switch to another you can't switch back (unless you do it from the other computer). Which is kind of a has

No, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on that one.

Maybe the reason they didn't sell was because the smaller variant was always a subpar device (and that was not due to it's size). No shit it didn't sell.

If you are comfortable with a terminal, install termux (from fdroid, not play store). Then you can use scp or rsync as if it was any other computer.

I do most of my meetings on my phone, and enlarging the screen if someone is sharing their screen works pretty well (it's not perfect, but more than enough for presentations). But I can of course transfer the call to my PC if need be.
