🪞 Introducing Mirror Hall, an app to turn any Linux devices into a second wireless monitor!
We use semi-custom P2P screen sharing optimized for low latency. Only Mutter-based DEs are currently supported as *senders*, whereas all DEs work as receivers.
This is our first unstable release, sp please be kind and report issues. If you are an #ARM user, we would love your help testing the gstreamer pipeline on new phones!

@tuxdevices Awesome! I tried this with my phone prevously using Gnome and RDP or VNC, it never properly worked though and the stream quality was abysmal. Would love to see this project flourish.
