So it appears that #AnyDesk has decided to go down the route of every other remote desktop access software.
Restricting their free personal use access to try and force people to give them money.
This would be the 3rd time I've had to start looking for new software.
I use it to access the 3 systems in my own home only.
They keep cutting my sessions off... Last POS company that did that used to do it after 60 seconds. At least they're letting sessions last longer... for now.
@anomnomnomaly There's a few open source / self-hosted ones you can get out there with clients I've seen, I've considered hosting my own but need remote desktop software so very infrequently I haven't reached a "Urgh let's install it" moment yet.
It's mostly used to access my home server and my work rig. I don't have a big enough home office to allow me to have multiple desks and monitors. So the server and workstation are in the corner and I remote onto them.
It makes it so much easier... everything is on the same switch. So speed isn't an issue.
But I remember the bullshit #teamviewer pulled a few years back. It was nasty, fake 'commercial use detected' bullshit to try and con you into paying hundreds for a license yearly
