Apart from that I am looking for a solution to a personal issue (see my other comment), I posted this because I was thinking this could be a great way to support other new Linux users and friends.

There was a bit of controversy about them a couple of years back that put me off.
- They used to disable Wayland and force X11 - that was a pain.
- They didn’t fully open source all components I think.
- There was some concerns about where it was being developed, I think it’s entirely Chinese devs.
It amazes me how you westerners are so afraid of China lol 😂😂😂😂
I also avoided it for some of these reasons, but in the end it was just the setup that got messy. I ended up using Sunshine/Moonlight for an overall nicer experience. I can use it to stream games if I’ve got a good connection, or toss it in low bandwidth mode for remote admin work. I run it behind Tailscale to access it from anywhere, it supports Wayland, it’s all fully open source, and I’m very happy with the setup.
Yep, as for the last point: the problem was not so much the devs but data going through a Chinese server
So, but what is the current state of this issue? Any plans to move it to a GNUnited Nations server?
I ran a Rustdesk server and it is constantly unreliable. It’s very likely it’s my fault and I lack the skills to fix it. I just decided to use Anydesk instead.
I’ve been running it for years now. No issues.
