One desktop, every viewer brings their own settings

Pairing across an ocean, on one desktop. In every remote-control tool, the guest inherits the host's world: their keyboard layout, their scroll direction, their bandwidth luck.

On Hoody, the session is shared but the client is per-URL. The desktop opens with sharing=true; then each of you configures your own connection in your own query string. The Paris side adds keyboard_layout=fr. The Mac side adds swap_keys=true so Cmd behaves. The one on hotel wifi adds bandwidth_limit=1500000&encoding=jpeg and degrades their own stream, nobody else's. Same container, same pixels, two differently-dressed doors.

AZERTY roulette and the whole-call quality race to the bottom both just stop existing.

The desktop is shared. Your side of it isn't.
