From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
GNOME Network Displays is the software that allows streaming your GNOME desktop to WiFi Display devices using PipeWire.
Last week GNOME Network Displays 0.91 was released with some big improvements to this software.
The v0.91 release also has various bug fixes and updated translations.
GNOME Network Displays 0.91.0 ============================= * Add support for Miracast over Infrastructure (MICE) protocol (@lorbus) * Add support for Chromecast protocol (@kyteinsky) * Add support for casting a virtual screen (@NaheemSays) * Fix various issues * Add/update various translations The MICE support had been under review for two years.
This has been successfully tested to stream to an LG WebOS smart TV over Ethernet and WiFi.
MICE allows for Miracast over LAN rather than using WiFi Direct.
