I've noticed that setting up remote login on both is really easy... and using the default RDP viewer in KDE I can simply connect to my laptop... great.

However, trying to connect from my laptop to my desktop isn't working. (Firewalls have been configured, thanks).

Using the "Connections" app just fails to connect but never stops trying. I downloaded RustConn and that gives me an error telling me that it's spawned an external viewer (it hasn't) as the RDP server isn't compatible.

I can, however, connect to my desktop just fine from a Windows VM with the "Windows App" 🤢

Anyone have helpful suggestions?

I was planning on adding Sunshine / Moonlight for game streaming anyway and I remember now they offer a desktop streaming function as well.

Have you compared Parsec with them?

Remmina was the one that worked for me, at least back when I still had to RDP to a remote Windows server, I got rid of these now (I was not responsible for deploying them)

I tried Connections, RustConn, Remote Viewer, Field Monitor... and none of them would connect. Remmina connected immediately.
