Sounds like removing couch co-op didn't hurt their sales. :(

I had no idea but spent some time googling anyways.
The answer seems to be a conservative tech youtuber that once upon a time worked with linux tech.

Reddit user comments:

It's really unsettling. He used to be a great Linux guy but now he's just a nut.

I unsubscribed from his YT channel and stopped following him as he gradually began to drift from being a dorky goofball to being a right-wing apologist.

Don't listen to Bryan Lunduke. He's a middle aged edgelord that new Linux users get introduced to because of his smart-ass "Linux Sucks" series, and then as they learn more about Linux themselves they realize he's just a douche who's not worthy of their youtube views.

I guess your "best" solution is to talk to Campus IT and sell them on the idea of buying the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapters and use as a secondary solutions with all projectors/tvs. Then all you have to do is plug in the client end that's already there waiting for you. ;-)

Workaround instead of solution:
You could buy a Wireless HDMI Transmitter and Receiver setup. Should be able to find a version where it kinda looks like a Compute Stick (HDMI end) that is powered with a USB cable.
This isn't much easier than using an HDMI cable and unless you have use for it at home afterwards it is a costly solution:

I found this guide for setting up GPU access for Unprivileged LXC containers when I googled around:
Giving a LXC guest GPU access allows you to use a GPU in a guest while it is still available for use in the host machine.

Talked about here:

The network isn't a bottleneck in my system.
I don't have any 20gb bluray rips as I'm satisfied with the quality of a 5-8gb 1080p.
I don't notice a delay when starting it, it's just a datastream without transcoding.

If the software you want to run has flatpak then I imagine you can try out Fedora Silverblue, Jellyfin do have a flatpak.

Personally I run my Jellyfin on a virtual Debian Bookworm server with transcoding off, my Jellyfin clients don't need the help.
I always clone my Jellyfin server before apt update && apt upgrade to be able to rollback.
Oh, and my NAS (network attached storage) isn't on the same machine, my Jellyfin server use Samba and /mnt/media/libraryfolders, so cloning it is quick and easy.

The CM4 won't get you H.264 4K, just so you know:
H.265 (HEVC) (up to 4Kp60 decode), H.264 (up to 1080p60 decode, 1080p30 encode)

scrcpy is wonderful. I have some reading apps on my phone but at home I usually use my laptop with scrcpy to read.

I got this in my .custom_bash.sh:
#Connect to phone over Wifi and view phone screen.
#Remember to set static DHCP for the phone MAC.
#And to use the same one in the adb connect line.
function phoneconnect(){
sudo adb start-server
adb tcpip 2233
adb connect 192.168.18.15:2233
scrcpy
}

An iGPU counts as a GPU.

What functionality do you want from your NAS? If it's simple NFS and Samba then I imagine you can choose whatever you want really.

Nah

Isn't the F11 preview similar?

Since I got curious:
It seems neither KDE and GNOME support the Wayland protocols needed to use Squeekboard.
Squeekboard is built to be used with Phosh, a Mobile Environment: https://phosh.mobi/about/

A big problem with using maliit as a mouse only OSK is the lack of modifier keys, from what I gather.
https://github.com/maliit/keyboard/issues/20

Huh, I thought Kwin supported Squeekboard now. Ah well...
Arcmenu and Dash to Panel will probably make your GNOME easier to use with mouse only

What stopped Squeekboard from agreeing with you?

I guess it depends on the person. I find starting with "real" VMs and VLANs makes it easier to get an understanding for what's going on underneath the hood, even when you start using Docker containers and the like.
