I use Samsung Dex as a daily driver basically. I'm a doctor and I use it to review patient charts on Epic. I also fully transitioned to Google docs+reworks for working on publications. It's so easy to set up wherever I go. Amazing battery life and incredibly lightweight.

8 freaking years to develop a solution for native video-out that isn't the confusing, low-quality, barely recognized DisplayLink.
8 goddamn years to admit to themselves that Chromecast mirroring is a dog shit alternative to DP-AltMode.
If they enable DisplayPort out put on Pixels they will catch fire or even explode because they have a poor thermal management and a chronic overheating problem
Hopefully this means companies using android will stop being lazy or cutting corners and finally give to everyone the vanilla desktop experience instead of restricting it on overpriced expensive ph ones!
