    Seems interesting. I’m a bit concerned that they don’t see encrypting direct traffic as an issue though https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/wiki/FAQ#i-only-use-rustdesk-for-a-few-devices-on-my-local-network-with-no-internet-connectivity-can-i-still-use-rustdesk-with-direct-ip-access

      Why? They offer it as a fallback solution you have to explicitly enable, I can imagine it’s not their focus given that the regular connection is encrypted.

        IMO, it shows security is not a priority for them. Just because you’re on LAN it doesn’t mean encryption is insignificant. There also isn’t really “LAN” there are just networks, so this necessitates using some sort of server even in the case where you have an IPv6 or IPv4 address that would otherwise allow you to directly connect to your peer.
