Mouse Without Borders Support?

[alikhan37544]

Hi, let me describe my use case.
I have 2 laptops and one desktop. The desktop is usually used to mirror to the weaker laptop and the other laptop runs a project seperately, but related to the main work.
Say for example, if one is web-developing, the desktop screen will have the code for both the website as well as the live implementation, the extra screen connected through spacedesk on the slower laptop will have a live-server localhost view and the third laptop will have the website open completely seperately, not connected to the desktop.
I recently made the switch to Linux on all 3 of my machines (Started on Ubuntu 22 and upgraded to 23 and 24 on all of them, performance and battery life have been miles better )
I used to be able to run spacedesk to easily mirror the screens when that was the use case and also run mouse without borders on all of them so that one good keyboard and mouse could be used to control all of the machines together.
.
Not sure if this is going to be possible, but it's a feature request :)

Mouse Without Borders would be an awesome addition! There are already excellent tools on Linux for sharing a mouse between Linux devices, similar to Microsoft's Mouse Without Borders. Given this, it would be ideal for a Linux implementation of Mouse Without Borders to be compatible with the Microsoft version, allowing mouse sharing between Linux and Windows devices using PowerToys.

The main challenges include:

• Developing the solution from the ground up.
• Understanding the custom protocol used over TCP sockets by the current implementation (reference).
• Ensuring all traffic is encrypted and decrypted in the same manner as the existing implementation.
