Nice, no sooner then Linux forcing Remote Desktop on us to the exclusion of Network Transparency, Microsoft is obsoleting it.
So, will Linux follow Microsoft and move to something else ? That seems to be what the Linux Foundation is good for.
- soco 2y agoAs I read from the article, Microsoft is basically retiring one of their three Windows clients. I don't see any implications for Linux in that.
- rcxdude 2y agoYeah, it's typical Microsoft brand confusion, though El Reg is certainly happy to use it for clickbait.
- outofpaper 2y agoDon't feed the trolls
- megadata 2y agoWait, Linux what? Gotta link?
- rcxdude 2y agoI think this about wayland vs X11, where the wayland protocol is local only and remote access generally involves sending pixels as opposed to draw commands around (which, unless you have a very good network connection, is usually the better option anyway, pretty much every time I tried to use X11 over the network it was unusably slow. Wayland also doesn't exclude being able to have remote windows as opposed to a whole remote desktop using pixel-slinging, but I don't know if any actual implementations support that).
