as someone who has started to daily drive rustdesk for 12 hours a day 6 days a week on 1 to 5/9 computers daily, this is a much better experience visually than anydesk. i've stopped using teamviewer 3-5 years ago when they said i had violated home free edition. anydesk seemed to go that way last year or so and i jumped ship. from my linux to windows 10 ltsc, alt-tab has issues, anydesk does not. anydesk has this fucking numlock bug for years now which hasnt been fixed. rustdesk does not have that. i am able to watch youtube over rustdesk, anydesk chugs. other than that, its just the same same. i highly encourage people to move from anydesk (again, teamviewer is out a long time ago anyways) and rustdesk is a good alternative. good luck to the team. edit: yes. file copy paste does not work from linux-windows, maybe it does windows-windows but i havent checked that while anydesk does this

I also daily drive Anydesk, and I use it a borderline obscene amount. I have gotten no warnings about hitting a usage limit. I moved to Anydesk for the same reason, and would probably move away if Anydesk put up a payment wall. Do you have any links about free-tier limitations? I use Windows/Linux to connect to Windows/Linux/Mac/Android and I have not yet hit any snags with numlock or device connection limits. The only bug / minor nitpick of Anydesk is that a Linux session host needs to explicitly initiate a new connection to the client for a file transfer, whereas on Windows hosts it happens transparently and just gives you a file picker alongside the existing session.

  yeah, there is a soft-limit https://www.reddit.com/r/AnyDesk/comments/qiid2u/official_statement_professional_use_monitoring/ https://www.reddit.com/r/AnyDesk/comments/qiid2u/official_st... last time i checked, they were mentioning something like 80 hours in 8 weeks or something that averaged to around 1.5 hours a day or something.... i did not bother waiting to get "whitelisted" because rustdesk works just as well without all this professional/free nonsense

    I most definitely use it a LOT more than that and have never hit an issue, but it's good to know there's a whitelist if that did happen. Thanks for the link!
