Is there a Chromecast equivalent? (programming.dev)

I'm not looking for Chromecast but I have a Linux system hooked up to a TV and ether net. I want a way to pick a YouTube or Amazon prime or Netflix video on my phone and display it on the TV via the Linux pc. Is that possible? If so what software can do it?

If you use kodi as your media software, either via a "kodi only" OS like libreelec or just opening it on any old linux install, you can use the kodi remote Yatze to cast video to Kodi. I use it all the time with youtube.

Just hit share on the video on your phone, select the Yatze option and it will show a list of your media centers to cast to.
