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.

Stupid n00b question about multiple desktops and external displays in Pop!
I am assuming this involves repeatedly tweaking xrandr, which seems clunky at best. I found this link that I have yet to try: https://github.com/dianariyanto/virtual-display-linux

I created Deskreen. This is a desktop app that makes any device with a web browser a second screen for your computer.
Combining with https://github.com/dianariyanto/virtual-display-linux I was able to make my windows laptop a second desktop screen to my linux desktop. Literally 5 minutes tops and it's all running smoothly. Thx!
