Jeff GeerlingRaspberry Pi just launched a Connect, a new VNC service that works with Pi OS 12 and Wayland and lets you access your Pis from any browser via a web UI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgbTNZD1Vcw
Michael Horne@geerlingguy Is this a better solution than VNC, or is it reactive to Wayland breaking that? 🙂
mmu_man@geerlingguy fun fact: Apple's Remote Desktop is actually VNC. a broken version though, at least when I tried to use it to connect to QEMU back then. It advertised an invalid protocol number, and was waiting for something when it should have been talking…
Mark Crocker@geerlingguy is this just a way to get a web view of #VNC when you don't have direct access to your device? Like an externally discovery mechanism coupled with firewall traversal, NAT, and proxy, negotiation, bundled in a universal browser interface.
I'm guessing that wayvpn, https://github.com/any1/wayvnc , is still running under the covers, and if you have direct access and a compatible VNC client, you should be able to just connect with that?
gary@mcrocker @geerlingguy you should always use a wrapper but jeff should dig down deep and brand some pikvm for best rsj experience - my takeaway - using it with a vpn always helps too then you don't worry about fw or nat
@mcrocker yes, but it doesn't allow direct connection with random VNC clients that I'm aware of, if you install Connect you have to go through their client. (But it's using wayvnc under the hood)
