    Our host does not want to waste time, and yet he take 4 minutes and 34 seconds to tell his viewers which application this video is about.
    It is not in the title. It is in his notes. But viewers should not have to hunt down the application that the video is for. Viewers should not have to read through the notes, crossing their fingers that it might be listed there.
    The above constructive criticism aside, this was a detailed review.

    I was also looking for a viable remote desktop software for years, until I heard about Rustdesk few weeks ago. Super easy to set up, it just works and works well, including the self-hosted server with docker-compose. I like you pointed out to be careful with the keys thing in this case; I was running it without enforcing encryption for some time.
    It it "young" and lacks some proper documentation, but I wouldn't argue it is possibly the best free remote desktop software out there.

    I came to the same conclusion, using Rustdesk. I do like NoMachine but it's too much trouble getting access through routers & firewalls. Rustdesk is simple enough for most people to install and get running, and it just works. Your video confirms my choice, thank you 🙂

    Lag experienced when accessing a machine connected via wireless network can be significantly reduced by disabling wireless power saving feature in Linux (e.g. `networking.networkmanager.wifi.powersave = false` on NixOS). This lag occurs mainly when the server is connected to the network via wireless.

    After trying out around half-dozen remote desktop solutions I finally settled on Spice. It can be finicky at times but all in all I'm pleased with it. Granted, I rarely use it over the internet but even when I do, It works fine. It claims to have TLS support but I've never used it. I'm a big user of OpenVPN so there's usually no issue, otherwise one can always use SSH. Although It's far from perfect, I can't recommend SPICE enough. I mostly use it with QEMU.

    what was wrong with Chrome Remote Desktop?
    Work from my chromebook to my multiple monitor display no problems. Works across multiple OS, copy & paste support, file copy / paste, no setup beyond creating a password, encrypted, practically no load time as it is through the browser and, assuming you set your bios settings to power on when power is restored from a loss of power, the connection works even on a machine not logged in allowing you to login and work, supports multiple codex & frame rates, etc. What did I miss that you didn't like about it? Couldn't find a review on your channel.

    Google's works the best. I remoted into my desktop PC from a Linux laptop the other week, and my laptop speakers started playing music. I was like wtf? Then I realized I had left my desktop PC streaming RUclips music. Google's remote desktop auto piped the audio over with the screen, windows to Linux, and it worked seamlessly.
    Plus, it runs on iOS, MAC, Windows, Linux, android through a web browser. Go from any to any.
    Why no mention? Every single thing mentioned is inferior to the chrome web browser remote desktop extension.

    Maybe there could be a simpler solution like a remote mouse + a teleconferencing application (or, even a video camera or an iPhone & Facetime) just displaying the remote screen for you. You don't really need to be able to remotely control the whole system, if you can just control the mouse! So, there could be a much simpler solution.

    Personally I use wireguard to create tunnels, from there I'll ssh into whatever, which is most of what I need. Though I do have xrdp on my main linux workstation which seems to work *ok*, though the performance doesn't seem as good as it should be.
    I looked into Rust Desk maybe 6 months ago, mainly from the perspective of wanting a teamviewer replacement for quick support like functionality mainly to help support random user windows workstations, but there are some shortcomings which have kept me on teamviewer for this purpose for now. The client seems to make some assumptions about how it should render, on dwm I think the client is able to be minimised to a system tray or something, which doesn't exist, so the client just becomes invisible and needs to be killed. There is no limited client version, so it's only the full client, and there is no way to control who can use your relay for what. So if you want to for example put the client on your website so end users can download it and read you their ID, that works... but the client is comparatively large, and they can then use that client for unrelated purposes besides me connecting to them. But it looked quite usable for internal org use. I'll be checking back on it in the coming months.

At that time, all I can say is that I exchanged some messages with the developer and he said my concerns were all things that he planned on improving on.

      @@gg-gn3re There's plenty of software that supports a system tray, and there's no problem with that. However many of them (even in windows) also provide an option to either disable the tray icon, or close the application upon closing the window, instead of staying resident in the system tray. Teamviewer, Remmina, Discord, all come to mind as common examples. It's more than just those people that don't want a system tray at all, it's also those who want an application to actually close when the window is closed on both linux and windows. Considering this behavior is the oldest and most common behavior, it makes perfect sense to provide that as an option, even when your default may be to minimize to system tray on window close. Rust desk may even support this by now, I don't know.

    ssh -X and then run a dock like cairo-dock or latte-dock or plank... I have even used xfce-panel. It works great for my needs. I can see a use case for the whole remote desktop when doing support work where you want the person local to the computer to see what you are doing. or you need to see what they are doing. Generally, a screen or text capture has been all I have needed for that. I only use this on a wired LAN, not Inet or wifi. Interesting to know whats out there.

    I don't know... it doesn't fit for me, at least. And there does seem to be a contradiction:
    Security is brought up as a concern, but for Linux systems Wayland must be disabled (one of the primary reasons for my migration, at least, was security; and a lot of other wonderful things were discovered besides.)
    And the fact that X emulation has been gone for a long time on Macs is mentioned, but _pedantically_ X is legacy for Linux, as well. With the similarity between XQuartz and XWayland, it is sort of amusing. I understand that they're not exactly the same thing, but I'd love to see something that supported say... Fedora/Arch late 2022 with video acceleration and the unique LInux audio features. That'd be awesome.
    It'd be a PITA to set up an X ingress box at my home lab, and kind of impossible to go back on my laptop (just too dependent now on Wayland/Pipewire; I know, broken record.) I can't think of a configuration that doesn't make me give something up, as much as I want it.
    I'm glad there's something extant, don't get me wrong. But something that didn't seem to target the least common Linux (exclusively) would make me really happy. I just don't have time to build around it when I have so many things I'm trying to build _up_.

All the Linux remote viewing systems are lame compared to Windows RDP and Quick Assist.

    Did NOT worked good, only in Lan.....i suggest Radmin, worked perfectly just like Hamachi used to

    But, you cannot start-up your computer remote! Otherwise, the Chrome remote desktop works relatively well and EASILY.

      Why not? Wake on Lan not an option for you?

    X11 is great, used to be resolution independent compared to anything else, just has not been updated fixed, wayland will kill remote apps, people r trying to kill x instead of fixing it

    How do you do multimedia with RUSTDESK? That is THE remote requirement. All else is merely desktop navigation. If anyone sits in front of the actual PC they have multimedia experience. So when anyone accesses a HOME PC, they would want complete multimedia access to the HOME PC...not just a flimsy video feed programs from the 80s have always provide. RDP or XRDP gives the user the COMPLETE desktop experience.
    You'd done a creditable job in explaining your views, but, you short-circuit the TRUE desktop experience that MS/APPLE have provided since 1995.
    Please test and show how you use or have installed XRDP. If for no other reason to show RDP client connect with total multimedia services at the phone, another Linux, another OS like MS/Apple, Tablet, etc getting TOTAL multimedia experience.

    Lack of ARM support these days is just laziness.

    In conclusion, unfortunately Rustdesk hates inits other than systemd...:(

    My guiding principles for remote access are as follows:
    1.Only Linux and *BSD matter - I rid myself of my Microsoft abuser when support for Windows 7 ended and I'd be a twitching and slobbering loony by now had I ever locked myself into an "Apple Jail" for any length of time.
    2. Mobile devices are "expensive toys" and not designed for proper adult computing - a small laptop with an at least "half decent" keyboard is what people that really understand computers carry about with them and use. (It's why babies in the back of their parents' cars like tablets to cover with sticky fingerprints when watching Disney videos - there's your sign, people.)
    3. I control my remote access to my systems, not some "third party agent snooper" that wants me to pay a fee to control that connectivity as an entirely unnecessary "middle man".
    4. If I am opening pinhole ports through my router for port forwarding, it needs to be as few as possible - if I can tunnel it over a single SSH port, like I can with X11, then that's always the preferred option.
    5. I use CLI or TUI applications where possible - then I can just drive them through an SSH TMUX session anyway.
    I used to use (free) TigerVNC to do my remote access but I use mainly Gentoo Linux and when TigerVNC caused a dependency issue a couple of years ago, I just de-installed it (for what I thought would be temporarily only) but have found no need to re-install it since.
    If you have that much of a need to run full desktop remote access that often to your own devices, then maybe organise your computing life a bit better and carry around a small laptop (instead of baby's tablet or silly little mobile phone screen) and just use rsync or scp over an SSH connection to do the file transfers that you need to.

    been there bro... tested all that crap*.... and the hacks with vnc/ssh/x-redirection/etc...
    until I found Rustdesk afew months ago... ;-) this is really a killer app... (killed almost all the others I used... ;-))
    and there is a very handy RDP auto-tunnel in RD that is invaluable for those who works with Window$... ;-)))
