Good evening,
Is it possible to display on a remote EASY ESP on another ESP EASY equipped with an oled?

Hello,
sure that is possible, it's called "Global Sync".

Check the Wiki: https://letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/EasyGlobalSync
It's shown as work in progress there but i'm using it for a long time now without problems so don't worry.

Oooops, forgot an important hint:

Watch out our tasks when using global sync!
Example:
You use an ESP called "TempSensor" with a sensor set on task 1.
Activate global sync in the Tools-_> Advanced and set the global sync active in the task too.

Then take a second ESP and activate global sync in the advanced menu too.
Do NOT use task 1 on this second ESP!
The sensor data from the first ESP will appear here. They are on task 1 on the first ESP so they will show up on task 1 in the second one.
Now you can use data as if the sensor is installed on the dsecond ESP, show it in a display or whatever.

Be patient! It may take a while until both devices get synchronized.
