    USB docking station should be supported (unless it’s one of those external battery ones that plug into the bottom of the laptop). Remoting into work is fine but depends on the setup. For example, openssh with rdp works fine, can’t vouch for other solutions but I’m sure you could get them working.

      I had to manually install displaylink on Fedora in order to use my USB-C docking station. But it drives 4x1440p monitors

        That’s true for any OS though. DisplayLink dock is software dock and must have proper drivers installed to work.

          dodos is claiming that it should be supported by the distro (meaning work out of the box).
