From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Which is exactly the requirements you need to remote desktop access via tools like meshcentral, anydesk... I don't understand this mentality of "X11 was broken!!!". Yeah well Wayland is broken since it stops legitimate uses as well.
Care to share some then? Specifically ones that allow remote control without local access to grant permission.
Not sure what vlc would help with. So I have to use a very specific DE in order to get the functionality? Does this really sound like the linux way to you? Getting forced to use particular stuff to get something to work?
