Rustdesk started as an open-source alternative to TeamViewer. Now, it offers more than just remote desktop access, making it handy for casual self-hosting.

With no need for (dyn)DNS, port forwarding, or a VPN, you can get:

  • Remote terminal
  • File transfer
  • Tunneling (similar to SSH port forwarding)
  • Remote desktop

I think it’s a solid choice if you have a simple one-server setup.

Looks like overworked devs did some pretty bad practice with certs, not as big of a deal as people are making it out to be. https://hackaday.com/2024/03/01/this-week-in-security-forksquatting-rustdesk-and-mms/
