This is amazing!

I'm saying that as a long-time user of a desktop setup consisting of Lin-Mac-Win boxes arranged left-to-right for at least two decades. Polyglot is to programming languages as multi-platform is to hardware. Fortunately, that's gotten easier as system-on-a-chip or SoC designs have proliferated in the last few years.

My current setup consists of 2x $250 Ryzen SoC Mac-mini copies straight outta Shenzhen and an M1 MBP.

I only wish that the once resilient world of open source KVM solutions such as synergy had not devolved into a recursive nightmare of forks where getting a working multi-platform open source software KVM without cost is challenging. Sadly, my current setup uses a good 'ole KVM switch but the button pressing is distracting.

I look forward to trying something like this again one day. Thanks for sharing!
