    Sidecar causing 2020 13' Pro to overheat

    Hi, I used my base 2020 13' Pro this afternoon with Sidecar, and after just 10 minutes roughly, the MacBook was extremely hot. This seems ridiculous when I was only using it as a second screen for Spotify. Is this an issue with Catalina, Sidecar or the MacBook? Anyone else experienced this?
