Works great.

Ya'll are exhausting. Wayland is the one thing where nerds on the internet will not even bother grabbing a livecd of a linux distro just to try it out and then complain about things that have been implemented for years.

>The server starts at session login

Okay so I STILL have to log in locally before I can log in remotely. Also the list of known issues is pretty concerning. This is in not even close to a remote login solution. You are not accomplishing anything by pretending Wayland is anything more than a half-baked toy at present.

It's actually far superior. X11 only provides frames of the display so you can't do h.264 encoding on RDP streams. With Wayland the compositor provides a stream of the window whether it's video or a game. The RDP protocol encodes it in h264 and you get much lower latency and frame loss. X11 can forward a socket but you get no clipboard, no audio, nothing except key strokes and frames. It's not encrypted. Doesn't scale. Have to use SSH tunneling. And good luck having any influence on what the physical displays are showing. You can only do a virtual display or a physical one but not both.

This RDP implementation has clipboard sharing and audio integration. It spawns in a user session but it actually locks the real screens and creates a virtual display. You can make as many virtual displays as you want. In theory you can attach to a single window or rectangular area of the screen. Also it works perfectly fine with SDDM Autologin so you can spawn a display on your server and just auto unlock it.

The project is actually awesome. It's a holistic and far superior RDP solution to anything in the Linux space before.
