I've just been using a Chromecast and my phone for nearly a decade now.

I'd personally rather not use something that requires Chrome and has miracast support too.

It doesn't require Chrome. No idea about Miracast, because I just use the Chromecast in-app connection on my phone.

I was thinking more for streaming from a laptop. I've tried it before and it doesn't work, you need Chrome to start the connection.

For that I think you need Chrome. I haven't done it in a while, because from my phone I can use Jellyfin or Web Video Caster.
