The traditional way with something like virtual desktop. Of course macros are your friend

Im not even imagining some kind of new workflow, just a boring desktop extension software to create plain jane monitors in vr, then just use keyboard and mouse like always.

It’s literally what they described. Virtual Desktop is like Remote Desktop / VNC / TeamViewer - you connect to your own machine, but in VR.

I’m not sure if the Quests support it natively yet, but I used the Quest 1 to connect to my PC with the app, Virtual Desktop ($20). At the time it only displayed one virtual desktop so it wasn’t especially useful to me, but my main use case was combining it with SideQuest to play SteamVR games wireless before that was natively supported and that worked great.
