But Windows is still bad. It can't even display the good clock, as an example of inacceptable bugs.
If I could find the same tablet-laptop format, with ubuntu support, that would be perfect, well until Android gets proper desktop support.
Wireless Dex by Samsung is very promising, but the perfect portbale monitor isn't there yet.
Add to the mix GKIs; AOSP's recent ability to boot from mainline; and the ensuing implication that all of these new adaptive shells being developed rn for the PinePhone could be reused on an Android device [2]; and the thought of 2021 has me salivating.
[1] Mostly, anyway. Some stuff would still be purpose-built, but realistically the main limiting factor for my phone as a daily driver at this point is the form factor.
[2] Assuming bootloader unlock, at least until we see how DSUs play out.
Incidentally ZeroTier is new to me, and an interesting rabbit hole in itself (along with the BSL, which is also a first-time read) since I'm in a similar spot with VPNs.
I RDP into my Windows desktop from my laptop running Ubuntu and my iPhone without trouble. I use Remmina on Ubuntu[0], and the Microsoft RDP app [1] on iOS.
Before this I was fiddling with TightVNC and a reverse SSH'ing from Window, but ultimately RDP through ZeroTier was (surprisingly) the easiest and most stable way I acheived.

Fedora runs quite well on lots of 2-in-1 pc's (e.g. tablet form factor plus detachable keyboard) these days. I've not really tried Ubuntu, but the hardware tends to be a lot fiddlier than typical laptops or desktops and Fedora has better support for it than Debian-derived distros in my experience. And the GNOME desktop from Fedora works quite well as a "pro" tablet environment.
I'm in France, it's 13:27. I'm confused about how one can mess so much with this basic feature. It's not even a timezone issue !
