Show HN: A VNC viewer for eInk devices capable of 30 FPS when writing text
I did this once, with a shared terminal via screen or tmux (and thus not VNC). You can install https://github.com/Eeems-Org/oxide and a terminal application via the toltec repoitories and then ssh (or mosh) from remarkable to the device that has the keyboard.
- 1-liner to build an app, GUI included

DOOM on reMarkable: About 13 FPS (minus ghosting artifacts)
The launcher is called oxide.

Remarkable + KoReader
On my RM2 I have a set-up with Oxide (https://github.com/Eeems/oxide), remarkable2-framebuffer, (https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable2-framebuffer), touchgestures (https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable-touchgestures) and KOReader. It's fine, you can switch between Xochitl (reMarkable UI) and KOReader with gestures, but it needs some Linux knowledge to set it up correctly.

Displaying last screen as sleep / suspend screen?
Maybe you want to take a look at using a launcher then. I know that [Oxide](https://github.com/Eeems/oxide) adds a custom'ish sleepscreen to all apps and maybe overrides the xochitl one with a transparent supporting one.

- Has anyone tried this 30fps VNC utility for Kobo devices?
- lightweight CLI (command line interface) tool to view a remote screen over VNC, designed to work on eInk screens ... optimized for text based workflows (document reading and writing), doing that it achieves a framerate of 30 fps

Apologies for the late reply @IshKebab, I read into your recommendations and they are very interesting.
If you wish you could copy your comment verbatim as an issue over here, so we can discuss it further: https://github.com/everydayanchovies/eink-vnc/issues
I will have a chance to test the ping tonight, possibly.
