Gen Zers are bookworms but say they're shunning e-books because of eye strain, digital detoxing, and their love for libraries
There is a GitHub project to use Remarkable as a second screen. I have not tried it.

Show HN: A VNC viewer for eInk devices capable of 30 FPS when writing text
There's https://github.com/matteodelabre/vnsee if you want to use VNC as a client on your remarkable. I've used it in the past to run Chromium on a server and display it on the reMarkable: https://photos.app.goo.gl/TnNE1tdzvrwphJ8N6

VNC for rm2 - still works?
Yes, it still works! I don’t provide any “official” instructions to use it with Windows, but check out this thread where users discussed some ways to get it to work: https://github.com/matteodelabre/vnsee/issues/13

Sreen Cast without Connect
Yes, see also https://github.com/matteodelabre/vnsee for the other direction. They don't need Connect. I believe most if not all work with Windows but probably slightly trickier to setup than with Linux.
- Anyone using VNSee on RM1 with latest firmware 2.10.0.324?

The PineNote is an e-ink notebook that runs Linux
There is a community VNC client for it. If you're on Windows you'll need a HDMI dummy plug to simulate a second screen with the proper dimensions.
But yes, it works as an external screen. Check out VNSee for this https://github.com/matteodelabre/vnsee
- Any way to use the rM2 as a "second screen" for a laptop? Specifically, for terminal use.

I made a python library for developing apps on the RM!

rmview / screen share
I've found that if I use any of the toltec packages that do things with the screen, like launchers, iago,etc, this happens. When I sat down and debugged it by removing packages one by one it came down to the display package that they all depend on. I think I've filed a bug for it on GitHub. Nope, I mentioned it in a comment in a bug on github.

Remarkable genie
I want to download the iago hack to have shapes but it requires lamp and genie, it being a gesture configurator. I downloaded all three but i dont know how to add the config file to create the gesture. Any help would be appreciated
-
I love using boxes or circles to draw mindmaps on the reMarkable, however...
After all of that, I can activate iago by swiping down with three fingers. (The "direction=right" definition allow for you swipe "down" when the tablet is in landscape mode. Basically, genie doesn't know about landscape mode; everything looks like portrait mode to it.) You can, of course, set your own gestures to trigger iago. The genie config file is documented on github.

Redux and base RM power management
you can disable remux's power management using a config option (as specified in the README): https://github.com/rmkit-dev/rmkit/tree/master/src/remux, but i think what is happening is due to xochitl powering stuff off.
