Current prerelease is 1.2.5

1.2.4 is the first to introduce experimental Wayland support. Especially on KDE Plasma there are supposed to be some issues.

Lets test!

Why?

Regular RDP/VNC programs are hard to use in real scenarios, as they rely on IP addresses. RustDesk is easier as it uses a Rendezvouz server that can also be selfhostet or reimplemented.

    The apps are bundled completely differently on OSX and Linux. It’s technically not possible to do the same thing there. Also this is not a free/paid limitation at all.

    They could maybe build a packaging tool that can customize the binaries (adding data to the PE executable in Windows and maybe a property file in OSX and Linux); but that’s quite some effort for not much gain.

        I said it’s possible, just much more effort than the current solution which only requires reading and and parsing the process name on startup.

      Under macOS it’s trivial to change the name of the application package without messing with other aspects of the packaging.

        If it’s so easy to implement, go ahead and open a PR. The community will be thankful.
