From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've got these things locally available in the $50-60 range. This being a generic brand, I imagine a buncha those are available globally. Anyone tried 'em, do they work OK with modern desktops (gnome, plasma)? Touch? DP-Alt or are they DisplayLink? Do they have PD?
Sellers are helpful nada, same with youtube videos, just marketing fluff.
I have a couple different units. Both recommendable, sub $100 range. Magnetic flaps are handy for slapping them to sheet metal like case sides. One is a trifold, the other a bifold. They stack and sit side by side nicely in many arrangements. Usb-c power pass through lets you Daisy chain a single high current input, they're pretty slick. I've had both of the screens and a gl.inet travel router on a single power feed Daisy chained in series, no issues. Oh man, touch screen though? Have no experience unfortunately.
