Hi @boisteroussninja! I think what @jcblum is trying to establish is whether:
a. you're using RStudio.cloud—in other words, RStudio Server running on RStudio's machines somewhere else and you're just logging into them with your browser; or
b. You've used some tricks to install RStudio Server on your Chromebook yourself and you log in to that through the web browser.
Both options look the same in your browser, but option (a) means that all the number crunching happens on RStudio's machines and you just see the results, whereas option (b) means that it's happening on your laptop.
It seems like it's probably the former if you've no memory of installing Linux tools or RStudio Server, but if you're logged into RStudio Server and the address bar starts with https://rstudio.cloud/, it's definitely the former—if you were doing option (b), the address bar would be more like localhost:8787.
The reason we want to establish this is that in option (a), you wouldn't know the user password (RStudio takes care of it, although bugs can crop up), whereas in option (b) you'd typically manage that stuff yourself
