Hello!

Years ago I found that nomachine was really good to set up remote desktops that felt nearly native.

However, nomachine is proprietary and I was wondering if there were any solutions in 2023 that were more recommended for running a remote desktop on a cloud vm / VPS / proxmox vm.

Unfortunately it seems that Sunshine requires a GPU, otherwise I would be using it together with moonlight.

Did you try Rustdesk? I use it for accessing VMs

Rustdesk

Holy smokes, thank you so much! I setup the server on one of my VPS on a docker in 5 minutes, and it worked amazingly. As a professional who has struggled with teamviewer and anydesk, I think you just gave me the solution I was looking for.

Sorry for the reddit link, but it’s important you delve deep into that rabbit hole

I have not gone through the reddit post yet, but will do so as soon as I get back home from work. But do I have to be concerned if I am self hosting rustdesk and using it only locally within my home network?
