You can already do this with VNC or Xpra (the latter is a screen/tmux for graphical applications).
so whats the edge that rustdesk that offers ? gaming ?
Performance, at any rate. VNC is fine but can be laggy.

RustDesk is also open source including the server so you can fully self-host.
That's not really true for quite some time now. Both client and the free server depend on a separate submodule that has no LICENSE file whatsoever. Because of that RustDesk is stuck in a limbo somewhere between open source, source-available and closed source. Also, the whole management of the project seems questionable. Also for some features a dll blob which is not open source is required with no source disclosed at…

#93Is there a reason to use this over something like Sunshine/Moonlight?

#94RustDesk should fix their password requirements: https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/discussions/2888
It's open-source, so just build it yourself with the tiny change. Something this trivial could be done with a 30 second prompt at this point, so there's not even an excuse of "too much effort". I will note that the XKCD password scheme being proposed there is, in fact, completely insecure. A modern consumer GPU can crack "four random English words" in a day. You can argue that it's the user's choice to be allowed to…

What you said: > A modern consumer GPU can crack "four random English words" in a day What you're saying now: > My mid-tier laptop GPU can crack the usual wordlist in under 12 hours against MD5 (46 billion guesses per second) So your response to the plain mathematical fact that, no, your consumer GPU cannot crack "four random English words" in a day, is that your consumer GPU can crack four words chosen from a list o…
Well, there could be quite a range of performance between a mid-tier laptop GPU (his consumer GPU), the average consumer GPU, and the average (gamer's) consumer GPU.

To be completely fair it's 2007 Windows NT they haven't caught up with.
Windows NT4 (1998) had officially support for Terminal Services, so RDP[1].

#98I've been using rustdesk for years. I love it.
Re: RustDesk now supports true unattended remote access on Wayland
#99Btw does RustDesk support microphone input passthrough from client to the host yet? So far it's only feature I found missing compared to proprietary solutions.
Unfortunately, no, it's not working. I use Rustdesk all the time. I've found a way, but it's really stupid. I have a GL.iNet Comet to manage my headless machine. That unit supports microphone passthrough. I send my mac's mic through that to ubuntu. It's an awful solution hah, but it works. I'm able to use dictation through that on Ubuntu. I didn't buy the comet specifically for mic use. I found out after the fact that it was able to do it.

VNC and RustDesk are both remote desktop solutions, however, Rustdesk is considerably more performant than the VNC family, because the latter primarily sends framebuffer updates, while the former can use modern video codecs and temporal compression to encode screen changes much more efficiently.
I just have one word for you: TightVNC. That's what made me uninstall RustDesk.
