I don't like chrome desktop because it has to run on top of chrome, so to me, it isn't the same, because it isn't a standalone program.

Comments about DWService as an Alternative to AnyDesk
AnyDesk has started nagging for large sums of money. This is not quite as smooth as AnyDesk, but good enough for my needs.
The client implementation is free software (as in freedom) and it has an excellent support service.

Ian DorfmanBoth AnyDesk and TigerVNC share the main function of connecting computers remotely via the Internet.
