From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I miss RDP.
Preinstalled in every Windows, just allow access on the host with one click, open it, type in the IP of the remote host, and it's like you're on that pc. Sound, mic, camera, other devices, multiple screens, ... It generally just works.
On Linux with Wayland, I don't even know how or if it works, or how to set it up on the host machine.
Edit: OK, it isn't that difficult, actually:

Try NoMachine.
That's a for-profit enterprise offering a remote connectivity cloud service.
It's an alternative to TeamViewer, not to RDP.
Fair enough!
I use Remmina with RDP plugin. Works great!
