How can I use this old tab (SM-T560) as a secondary monitor using a USB cable.
I got this tab from my grandfather since he didn't have any use for it. It has 1.5 gb ram and runs Android 4.4. The only use I can think of is to use it as a secondary monitor for my laptop. I tried this method (https://github.com/santiagofdezg/linux-extend-screen). This method did work, but it is extremely laggy and unresponsive. The video shows this running on 24 fps. I think that if I can connect it by USB instead of remote desktop, this setup might be usable, but Idk how to do it since the tab runs Android 4.4. I use zorin OS and my laptop is ThinkPad x1 yoga 1st Gen. If I can't set it up as a secondary monitor, I'll try installing Linux on it as I can't think of anything else.

Have you tried Termux? I currently use my old Xperia with a broken screen as a "server", but it can actually be used like this: https://github.com/adi1090x/termux-desktop (I haven't tried, since I don't need to)

Linux OS to run on old smartphones for self-hosting stuff on docker ?
You can try your luck with termux, it can run a linux desktop environment. However for running docker you'll need to run VM

Why did the '$' sign changed into these boxes? It changed after I installed a proot-distro from GitHub while ssh on my linux desktop.
I followed the instructions to install this desktop environment from GitHub.

I bought the Galaxy Z Flip3 assuming that DeX was supported, but it's not. Today I discovered UserLAnd that lets you run Linux on top of Android. It works!
As an alternative you can use termux to set up a GUI. https://github.com/adi1090x/termux-desktop
