I planned to use the tablet to connect to a tmux session and mirror a shell session on my laptop. I could then type on the laptop but use the RLCD display.

Not a crazy idea, but might look a little weird.

I’ve had a reMarkable 1 for a few years, and even had fun hacking it [0] but ultimately it’s too restrictive and slow for what I ended up using for, which was reading and annotating PDFs away from my desk.

I believe the HannsNote can serve as a monitor as its running android or am I mistaken? What's the benefit of tmux over it behaving as a regular monitor?

That would be better, I’m sure. I’ve not looked at what’s available. I’d prefer to avoid using a Google account, so limiting myself to F-Droid.
