Working well with Gnome Wayland with fractional scaling enabled. Since Gnome 47, rdesktop shows a very high resolution so that it's barely usable.

However, "Connections" has a bug that when you enable auto rescaling on window resize, it seems to refresh the screen so often, that you cannot interact with the remote server. So you have to turn that off and set window size on program launch.

What is Connections?

Connections allows you to connect to and use other desktops. This can be a great way to access content or software on a different desktop operating system. It can also be used as a way to provide support to users who might need help.

A range of different operating systems can be connected to, including Linux and Windows desktops. You can also connect to virtual machines.

Connections uses the widely supported VNC and RDP protocols, and one of these must be enabled on the desktop that you want to connect to.

Connections aims at replacing Vinagre icon Vinagre as the remote desktop client for GNOME icon GNOME.
