I agree that’s an important aspect of open source, but for me personally it’s more about being able to audit what is running on my machine. the fact that they show you the code lets me see and confirm for myself that they aren’t doing anything shady like spying. Though it might not be good enough for some people it definitely is for me.

It’s a level of transparency you won’t ever get from truly “proprietary” software.

Then yeah, that option is worthless to you. For me, having networked solutions over a domain I have that enabled. But if its just internally I’d also disable it

I personally use hop2desk for all of my remote access needs. Works wonderfully on any pc as well as on android! Best part is you dont need to dick with ports or anything like that, just make sure you set a good persistent password and you’re good to go.
