Your Pixel can now double up as a full Android PC with nothing more than a USB-C cable - Lemmy.World

This has been hidden in developer options for a while now, but they’re now releasing it officially

And a monitor that supports usb-c, I assume.

DisplayLink. The Dell box I use to hotdesk my office laptop by day also works as a KVM on my pixel 9a. I get power, monitor, keyboard, mouse and ethernet on one cable.

No, that’s different. Displaylink is basically KVM over USB-C.

As far as i know, display link requires software not available on the pixel, so you must be using display port and confusing both. Display port supports all the things you said

I think you mean DP Alt Mode.

No. DisplayLink is video out over a regular USB connection, not “alt mode”. It’s for when you don’t have true video out. It’s compressed to hell and stupid.
