Still learning this myself but I’ve found that Xrdp is Wayland compatible so there’s that if you want to remote using RDP protocol.
Gnome has its own version called Gnome Remote Desktop that is also Wayland compatible.
And for KDE its own KRdp is another RDP protocol remote server that is Wayland compatible (https://github.com/KDE/krdp). I haven’t tested the KDE version yet but I’d guess it works similarly to Gnome Remote Desktop and Xrdp, AFAIK they all use FreeRDP in the backend.
All the Linux RDP servers seem to have their own quirks but seem okay for personal day-to-day use least.
Beyond RDP solutions you could also check out stuff like RustDesk and NoMachine, they seem to be Wayland compatible as well. Though I am curious what else people use.
PS - Gave up looking for a Wayland compatible VNC, not sure if VNC will sort of die out as more and more Linux distros switch over to Wayland.
A free tier is available and you have the option to self-host or not. Host machines can be on Windows, Linux, or macOS (Android is probably also possible, but I haven’t tried.) It is open source.
No problem, I will add that then: I use their servers and the free tier. I only use it on my personal devices and remoting into friends’ computers. My work threw a fit when I had it installed on my work laptop.
I have all of my devices setup to require 2FA for each connection and I have set custom passwords. The default is a 1-time password, like what TeamViewer used to.
Do you ever remote into this machine? What do you use for that?

RustDesk
Paid, self hosted, etc.?

Thank you. I was wondering which you (and others) typically use.
