AI was trying to shill this piece of garbage to me.
>>109511165TigerVNC has superb performance. Only TurboVNC beats it out. Just have to put up with shitty UX in both cases. Fair trade-off, as it's the exact opposite situation with most other VNC software.
>>109511233How does it compare to Remmina and freeRDP? along with TigerVNC those are the most common recommended remote desktop software I keep hearing about>t. never used remote desktop before
>>109511165I've used TigerVNC since LONG before LLM brainrot was a thing. The reason it's so good is because it works with TigerVNC servers to let you do dynamic resizing, something only paid VNC clients used to do and IIRC still only do if you buy a RealVNC subscription
>>109511858Never used freeRDP, but Remmina is extremely comfy and allows you to organize connections while saving their credentials and settings. All Tiger and Turbo have going for them is performance. If you don't care about a bit of additional rendering time, and perhaps some display artifacts on the client side, Remmina is worth it.>>109511891Most offer dynamic resizing now, including Tight, Remmina, and Remote Ripple.
>>109511858VNC and RDP are different beasts. VNC lets all clients share the same graphical session unless specified otherwise, RDP makes a new desktop per session. So a client and its users can never interact with one another. RDP as a protocol is very useful with Windows because the functionality is built-in, but on Linux the implementation is clunky unless something impressive has happened the last 5 years I wasn't aware of. xrdp is difficult to use and is using VNC on the backend so it's no faster or better than just using native VNC. Plus you can't resize unless you specify it in xorg and IIRC it doesn't work with wayland. Even if you use RDP with windows, you can only resize before connection. So you open a connection and want to resize? Gotta close it and guess the new ratio. VNC is the standard for Linux because of TigerVNC. Want to make a new session per client? It can do that. Certificates for security? It can do that. Everyone share one screen? It can do that too. Dynamic resizing? Does that too. Sound? Yep. Clipboard? Sure. Drag and drop? Always had that. Really, only something like RustDesk is any better if you want remote viewing. desu, I prefer to roll my own implementation since I do not want to have open remote viewing that someone has any potential to password guess. Never tried Remmina. It looks to be just a client that can do all of these different protocols
>>109511924For resizing, you need their specific server tho. Tiger isn't ever going to resize using Tight's client, IIRC
>>109511165works pretty good for me your server must be on the fritz
>>109511953Remmina can do dynamic resizing on Tiger and Tight servers. I bet it works with other VNC servers too, but there could be client side trickery involved. I've used Tiger's viewer to interact with many Tight servers, but for some reason, dynamic resizing only seems to work in that scenario when the viewer is running on Debian or a derivative. Tiger's viewer feels a little gimped in Red Hat land, at least on Alma and Fedora.
>>109511858Try to transfer files with TigerVNC.
>>109512545why would you do that instead of using sftp?
