Android 14 adds support for using your smartphone as a webcam
Use a vnc client on your android device and setup a virtual monitor on your desktop that is really a vnc server.
I know how to do that with Sway and swayvnc on wayland, as well as with xorg.

This is particularly helpful to people using asahi linux and wanting to connect an external monitor. That can be done with something as simple as a raspberry pi.
EDIT: apparently this project help achieving the same thing on different OS but using webRTC and a browser:

Just wondering if I can run sillytavern or pygmalion(forgot which is which) on my pc and use my phone to connect to it then use tavernAI (the interface) on my phone?
Screen sharing apps are good for this. You can access your pc from your phones browser and local pc IP. https://github.com/pavlobu/deskreen is free one i use.

How can i create a virtual display on X11? [Amd]
No it is not necessary. The screen mirroring and sharing single application window functionality of Deskreen are working without any need for Virtual Display Adapter. The Virtual Display Plug is needed only if you want to extend your computer desktop to have a full secondary screen experience with Deskreen.

Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?
I use Deskreen with Windows, it has a Linux version that probably works similarly. I think it leverages browser streaming tech.

Easiest way to get it working is with a dummy plug, but maybe there's more options on Linux to fake a display in software.

Show HN: Another way to use an old tablet as an extra screen
I've used Weylus [0]. It works over LAN, lets you control the mouse from your tablet. Sometimes it's laggy, but you can configure the resolution so it's not using too much bandwidth. I'm not sure if it's stable at all. Haven't used it on a regular basis.

What’s better for modelling, a tablet or computer?
Can't speak for modelling on Blender itself but, I have https://github.com/H-M-H/Weylus setup up on my linux desktop to draw the 2D animation frames for my game using OpenToonz and an old Android 10 tablet with stylus for input.

10.3 performance with pdfs and scientific papers vs 13.3
You can also use a software called weylus, to use the tablet as "writing pad" during online discussions/lectures, it works quite well although still prefer my wacom one tablet for that.

App for Screen Mirroring?
Any of the scrcpy GUIs like QtScrcpy let you mirror your Android device onto the PC and also control it from there if you enable the option, otherwise you can do the opposite with Weylus, so you mirror your PC's screen to the tablet and then you can draw from it with either your fingers or a pen, with pen pressure supported as well, which I find pretty amazing!

Tips & Tricks for Productivity with BOOX (Obsidian, Syncthing, Weylus, RustDesk, Termux, KDE Connect, ZeroTier) + 2 Bonus Screensavers
Weylus can turn your BOOX device into a wireless graphic (wacom) tablet with a live video feed while supporting all the pressure sensitivity levels of the stylus. I’ve used it for drawing inside Krita (example shown below) and also sculpting inside Blender (Krita and Blender running on my laptop). I think it is very simple to set up - I just start Weylus on my laptop and then connect my Tab Ultra via a web browser. The input latency on the laptop screen is low, but the live video feed from a laptop on the tablet is quite a bit worse because of the screen technology, but it is still usable in one of the fast modes (and the laptop screen is right next to me, so lower quality of video feed is not a big deal). It is possible to disable this live feed and just use it with a black background like most graphic tablets - but I quite like to see the same canvas also on my tablet.
