TightVNC to create new display
You didn’t mention which OS your parents run, but if it’s Windows then you can use RDP (Remote Desktop Host). The normal RDP program that comes pre-installed on a non-server version of windows doesn’t allow concurrent users (I.e. if you were to open an RDP session while one of your parents was using the computer, it would log them off in order to log you in). However, someone created a workaround on GitHub…I installed it and it works great! Only issue is you have to remember to sign out EVERYtime otherwise it tends to just create new log in sessions for each user.

Alternative RDP server daemons for Windows
The same post also mentions another open source software that supposedly do the same thing without patching the system. But it looks unmaintained 2018 and the readme mentions that it could not work with newer Windows 10 versions. Also this is definitely violating the EULA as well.

Sunshine + Moonlight works on Sway for remote desktop and game streaming
The Aster software is really interesing! I am kinda looking for a simultanous workstation use. I used to use [this](https://github.com/stascorp/rdpwrap) hack that allows simultaneus RDP sessions. Not ideal for gaming but for work stuff is good. Might try this out when I build a workstation for work so my team can remote connect and work on their own windows accounts on the workstation, at the same time. But RDP sucks, Sunshine would outperform this. But its better because i dont need to have multiple Sunshine instances running per account (i think thats what would be needed for seperated simultaneous users).

Show HN: A Vulkan-Video-based game streaming tool for Linux
> Would the Swift UI also work on an iPad?
Yes, but probably not for the first version.
> Do you have any comparisons with other tools (eg steam streaming, moonlight)
Steam streaming just doesn't really work on linux. Moonlight is somewhat similar in terms of direction, and has an established client base. I know of at least two projects to build servers for the Moonlight protocol[1][2].
The Moonlight protocol is a bit weird, because it's an open-source reverse engineering of a dead NVIDIA project, GeForce now. There are fundamental limitations to the protocol, for example that the cursor must be rendered in-stream or simulated. Using my tool, the cursor is rendered locally, and custom cursor images can actually be pushed to the client, for a seamless experience. This sounds like a minor detail but it matters a lot for subjective latency. I'm also working on employing tricks like hierarchical coding using FEC in the protocol, because I hate VBR encoding for games (it makes text blurry and breaks immersion). Those tricks aren't really possible in Moonlight.
All of the Linux solutions I know about have significantly higher latency compared to Magic Mirror, although I don't have numbers for exactly how much higher. (I have a benchmark to test the latency of my tool, but the others don't.) I'd encourage you to try them out and get a feel for the difference.
Finally, I think Magic Mirror is the easiest to install and get going on the server. It has almost zero runtime library or service dependencies (there's a pesky dynamic link against libxkbcommon which I haven't managed to remove), so you don't need to mess with pipewire or docker or anything - it's completely self-contained.
All that said, the existing tools have the advantage of a larger user and contributor base, whereas Magic Mirror is just me on a mission so far :) So they're likely to be much more stable and usable.

Why is remote desktop slow when host monitor is off unless HDMI cable is used?
RDP as a regular or quick solution is actually really decent in this respect.

KDE Plasma 6.0 Is Enabling Wayland by Default
You could use sunshine (https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine) + moonlight (https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-qt). To be honest, at least for me, it works better than most of the RDP/VNC stuff.

Give Moonlight a chance if you haven't tried it lately
EDIT: Just checked again, original was released early 2020, current maintained project started 2022.

RG353VS Moonlight
On your pc, install Sunshine. It's an open source moonlight server. There's a good walk through on the sunshine github page. Connect your handheld to the wifi running the server & open moonlight. Should work.

Introduction
I discovered the moonlight client and sunshine server a few months ago. These are open source solutions to provide remote gaming/desktop capabilities with built in input and audio passthrough. I tried NoMachine, but I wasn't able to get audio to work. This looks like a known issue on arch. On sunshine, I didn't have to do any extra tweaking! This allowed me to game on my desktop pc without having to sit at my desk. This was especially helpful while watching my 2nd son. I was really impressed by the performance, I could stream my host's display at high resolutions and frame rates with low latency despite my desktop being in the basement using WiFi. I was getting some instability with WiFi, so I wanted to try connecting my desktop to the router via Ethernet. I decided to go with a headless solution because that gives me more flexibility on the placement of the desktop; I ended up moving my desktop upstairs closer to my router. I figured out a way to stream my hosts display headless by using Nvidia TwinView to create the virtual display. This means I don't need to buy any HDMI/DP dummy plugs. I wrote a Linux Guide for sunshine on how to set this up. If you have any feedback on this guide, let me know! I haven't tried this, but wolf is an interesting docker alternative to sunshine.
