I searched around and I couldn't find a way to cast my laptop running mint to my TV. For reference, I am aware that I can cast to Chromecast supported devices through chrome, but my TV is an LG and it does not support Chromecast.

Does anyone have a method to cast my desktop to an LG TV?

I have an LG TV too, and I use a Steam Link for this. I think they're hard to find now though. I'm not sure if there is another way, but I haven't found one if there is.

Dang, that's unfortunate. I'd rather not buy any additional hardware. I can cast from windows to the TV easily so I know casting is possible.
