Hrvach/Deskhop: Fast Desktop Switching Device
Now it just need to be combined with something like https://github.com/haimgel/display-switch to do a DDC/CI monitor input switch as the USB activity moves around.
With a device like this you'd be missing the on_usb_connect event, but presumably you could do something (a special HID device button, an extra device id appearing, who knows) to make it work.

Can Dell’s 6K monitor beat their 8K monitor?
The best option I've found is to hook both computers up to a USB-only KVM, and plug them in via separate video cables to the monitor. Then set up the computers to tell the monitor to change inputs (via DDC commands, which most but not all monitors support) when you change devices on the KVM
There's software to help do this automatically (https://github.com/haimgel/display-switch)

Hell froze over: You can purchase a Thunderbolt 4 KVM Switch right now
Cynical footnote: PC users can continue to enjoy https://github.com/haimgel/display-switch while Mac users need to buy a 300 USD device. That's the Mac experience for you :D

Keyboard Maestro 11
Unfortunately, the StreamDeck doesn't emulate a standard USB HID device, so it needs a driver running in the background to detect button presses and do things like generate keystrokes or call Keyboard Maestro macros.
There's streamdeck-ui (https://timothycrosley.github.io/streamdeck-ui/), which is an open-source alternative, but it at first glance it seems to be only for Linux).
There are a bunch of other macro/launcher pads like the StreamDeck that DO act as standard USB HID keyboards, though, and those should work fine with Keyboard Maestro using keyboard shortcut triggers.

This keyboard would be awesome for Bitwig. Or audio production in general
Not sure if that keyboard has open source editing software, but Elgato Stream Deck certainly does.

Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?
tbh I didn’t have a problem with the official Windows app so I can’t say anything about that much
But under Linux I used this
https://timothycrosley.github.io/streamdeck-ui/
Works pretty well by my experience under Debian. There are some edge cases like Wayland (see the issues) though.

Linux Streamers, What Tips, Tricks, and Tools Do You Use?
The only tip I'd have would be for Wayland users who suffer from not having global shortcuts work with OBS: obs-cli with obs-websocket have you covered. Set a keyboard shortcut or Stream Deck button (using streamdeck-ui) to execute an obs-cli command and you're done.

Elgato Keylights
Anyone have any experience with the ElGato Keylights on Linux? I use Ubuntu 22.04. I have stream deck that I use with Streamdeck-ui and I wanted to know if anyone uses these lights with a cli program that would allow me to control them? On, Off, brightness, etc?
- No Google, for the last time, I don't want that thing

Ask HN: What sub $200 product improved your 2022
Thanks for the info, I wasn't aware of the Stream Deck. It is also supported on Linux by Open Source library and app. Very tempting.
