Rustdesk: a open source remote desktop software (lemmy.zip)

About a year ago I introduced Rustdesk as an experiment. For those who don't know Rustdesk is a piece of software that allows remote access. You can use the public servers or you can use your own private server.

It has been a massive success and a game changer in my company. The biggest benefit to Rustdesk is that it allows you not only to share your screen but to connect to other peoples screens. That doesn't sound like much of a game changer but having a simple UI that can be taught to people that aren't tech savvy is very useful. It has powered collaboration internally.

I just thought I'd share my experiences.

i forgot about that criteria, being FOSS. i've used AnyDesk before, but avoid doing so now.

i've also used Remmina, but some of the people i support use Windows Home edition, which doesn't include an RDP server. i don't kbno if i could use it with VNC
