The point is that you can use your personal device instead of a secondary machine. Everything is in one spot: your local files, workspaces, sessions and settings.
I like the idea of leaving one keyboard on my desk at home and one at the office and just carry my work in my pocket.

Yeah I thought this was cool and having been trying it for a year because I used to travel a lot for work. But I realized carrying my portable monitor and keyboard wasn’t much different from carrying my Surface. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like it’s less useful than it seems.

Maybe to turn a refurbed pixel into a hole server?

From what I’ve experienced, it’s just running android apps on a desktop aesthetic so you get your free floating windows but it’s still all android. That’s why I’m not sure if using your pixel as a server or any kind is viable. Sorry, I’m not technical enough.
