    An open-source remote desktop, and alternative to TeamViewer.

  • I'd proceed with caution. Apparently it doesn't support Wayland, so when you run it under Wayland it offers you a "Fix it!" button that, when clicked, runs sed on some gdm system config files to revert it to X11: https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/blob/1.1.9/src/platform.... If this is the kind of thing that's considered acceptable by the developer, I'd rather keep their products far away from my machines.

    A quick glance at the code also reveals an almost complete lack of comments and copious use of unexplained `unsafe`.

  • RemoteSupportTool

    an easy single click solution for remote maintenance

  • InfluxDB

  • sunshine

    Host for Moonlight Streaming Client (by loki-47-6F-64)

  • I don't use it so I can't comment on this issue myself, but Wayland support for Sunshine seems all but guaranteed: https://github.com/loki-47-6F-64/sunshine/issues/44

  • rust

    Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  • At the very least, I would have used an AtomicBool rather than a static mut. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/53639

  • Sunshine

    Discontinued Sunshine is a Gamestream host for Moonlight. [Moved to: https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine] (by SunshineStream)

  • Have you tried this version from this repo? It's more up to date. https://github.com/SunshineStream/Sunshine

  • rustdesk-server

    RustDesk Server Program
