Rustdesk started as an open-source alternative to TeamViewer. Now, it offers more than just remote desktop access, making it handy for casual self-hosting.
With no need for (dyn)DNS, port forwarding, or a VPN, you can get:
- Remote terminal
- File transfer
- Tunneling (similar to SSH port forwarding)
- Remote desktop
I think it’s a solid choice if you have a simple one-server setup.
didn’t i hear some off-putting shit about rust desk kinda recently?
I would not touch it, seems very sketchy, and with this sort of program you need total trust
Looks like overworked devs did some pretty bad practice with certs, not as big of a deal as people are making it out to be. https://hackaday.com/2024/03/01/this-week-in-security-forksquatting-rustdesk-and-mms/
