Use a VPN server or Reverse Proxy setup. Both can be done easily using a Raspberry Pi. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] aleuts@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago (2 children) notebookcheck.net/Apple-... VNC is horrible to do actual productive work on. I doubt you do this to actually work a full day permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] gngstrMNKY@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) It can be pretty clumsy on Windows but I’ve found that Apple’s server/client works pretty well, at least over a LAN. Not sure what the iPad client situation is like. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 00DEADBEEF@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) It's clumsy over a LAN, nevermind the Internet. Apple's VNC is not a patch on something like Microsoft's RDP. It's a poor solution, and depends on you having a good connection at the remote end. And you'll also be using a tiny iPad screen. If you buy an iPad Pro and Magic folio and a Mac Studio then you've probably spent as much as a MacBook Pro. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] aleuts@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago exactly. Chromes Remote Desktop is the best solution ive found that's not paid and it's still got nothing on Microsofts RDP. im convinced they haven't actually done any real work on it. just get a MacBook Pro as you said and call it a day permalink fedilink source parent [–] AHrubik@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I was recently turned on to NoMachine and have been testing it.
