NoMachine provides the best, fastest and highest quality remote desktop experience.Ĭonnect to your desktop. It is designed to work across several platforms such as Windows, Mac and Linux to give users access to the physical desktop of the remote computer. Except for the Nomachine, the users have other choices like AnyDesk for the remote desktop, But NoMachine will provide you the better experience over any other remote desktop applications. You can use it as the alternative of TeamViewer, which is available freely. It has its quirks, but it's fast and good enough.NoMachine is a popular remote desktop application. don't work very well.ĭoes anybody know a better alternative than the ones I've outlined here?ĮDIT: So far NoMachine seems to tick all boxes. But then the keystrokes are forwarded from host, to VM, to Mac, so stuff like special keys, switching languages (fn key), etc.
It's as if the remote mac detects that Screen Sharing is connecting to it instead of a regular VNC client and then it "stops" using the VNC protocol and switches to some kind of video renderer (a-la Parsec, or ffmpeg/video-based, like Moonlight, Steam Link, etc.) and it's butter smooth!. It's still sluggish as hell even though it's local, but then I use Screen Sharing to connect to the real Mac and oh my god it's fast as heck. I fire up an OSX VM with VFIO (Monterey, RX 250) and connect to it through Remmina (VNC). It strangely seems to have the best performance even though it's going through VNC. VFIO OSX VM connecting with Apple Remote Desktop (Screen Sharing): Okay so this method is a bit "new". XRDP: Yeah I went down this route too, it seems to be just a VNC-to-RDP forwarder, so same result as VNC. Screw them.ĪnyDesk: Kinda a mix between VNC and Parsec, not a good experience, but "it works". TeamViewer: It works but it's paid, or they wrongly flag you for using it for "commercial" purposes. It seems to perform very well video-wise, but keystrokes are sometimes captured by the host instead, so it's worse than VNC.
Parsec: I tried it for a while, it worked but installing/using it is a pain due to the stupid security measures OSX has. Input-wise seems to be the best, but there are still some keys that aren't captured so it's not a 100% flawless experience. Experience isn't butter-smooth, even with wired internet in both machines, 1Gbit network. until the screen decides to refresh itself, or I request a manual refresh. VNC (through Remmina): It works but there's some noticeable delay, missing elements, etc. I'll say some things I've tried and my current setup:Ĭlient: Fedora 36, GNOME 42, Wayland, wired internet, Apple keyboard. I've been wondering if there's a way to connect to a Mac computer using something faster than VNC.
