Is a tablet that doubles as a USB-C second laptop display a (FOSS) thing? (lemmy.world)

Really only interested in something like Graphene, Lineage, or a Linux mobile tablet that can work with a typical Linux distro and display over USB-C. It is just a casual conversational ask. Maybe one of y'all has tried or knows the answer. I won't use anything that runs google stuff or is a pain to load a custom ROM.

I wish there was a way to subscribe to posts on Lemmy so you would get notifications for replies, even if you didn't create it.

I usually just leave the post open in a tab and come back to it eventually. Sometimes that's a couple of days later…sometimes months.

Doesn't work in the app so well. Additionally, there's no read history, so if you click away from a post and close the app without commenting or voting, and have posts marked read hidden automatically, it's gone forever

Yeah that's definitely a problem. It's actually part of why I stopped using a Reddit app and just used old.reddit.com on my phone, back in the day. But my experience is that lemmy-ui is not as nice to use on mobile. I do occasionally use the "copy permalink" option from the app, and then paste that into my browser. But that's inconvenient enough that I only quite rarely do it.

The connect app offers a subscribe button for posts. Idk if that's helpful?
