This would be awesome... If there was a single Android app that I'd want to use on my desktop.

This is why I'm baffled by Google's plan to merge Android and Chrome Desktop. Why would anyone want that?

My only possible use case for it was smartube next and jellyfin, but last I tried it, the apps couldn't go fullscreen and you couldn't change the DNS server so Jellyfin didn't work at all. And I didn't even try audio passthrough soy assumption is that doesnt work either.
