Hey guys, I’m just an ordinary dev looking for something to work on. While messing around with my hobby projects, I couldn’t help but notice that under the surface, there are a lot of places that the libre desktop can be improved. I’d like to take on your suggestions on what I should seriously consider working on and helping out with.

Thanks for any comments and suggestions.

(For those wondering, I’m still working on my other stuff.)

    X2Go is the closest I’ve seen to ease of use, and it’s based on already widely available components (X over SSH). It also has an explicit confirmation counterpart (x2godesktopsharing) so people can give explicit permission to remote into their already running desktop session.

    But the UI is terrible. It’s badly laid out and wasteful and has dozens of arcane options that you have to dig through and figure out.

      gnome-remote-desktop works really well for me. 1-click config too.
