    There may be some concerns about privacy (it uses public relay servers), open source (depends on closed-source Sciter) and how RustDesk disables some built-in security in Linux. See this discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/uurta8/comment/i9hguw6/

    RustDesk allows only for local access (on the same network), while AnyDesk allows for remote access (over different networks), at least in it's personal user version.
