    Rustdesk is like Teamviewer, both are nothing like Remmina is. RD/TV are servers as well. Remmina is purely a CLIENT connection manager.

    Teamviewer connects to other TV hosted computers. Remmina is a CLIENT not a server like TV is. Remmina supports SSH tunneling as well for RDP connections. TV doesn't. TV connects to TV. Remmina connects to VNC, RDP etc.
