Hello all,
I’m planning to install Linux Mint on the notebooks of some relatives as it’s not compatible with Windows 11 and thus not getting security updates anymore. They are absolutely not tech savvy and only using very basic stuff (web browser, print documents, maybe low level office stuff). Still I’m looking for a way to support them with some kind of remote control software if they have an issue. On Windows I liked Teamviewer for it’s simplicity, they can double click the icon and tell me the code that is displayed and that’s it. Is there something similar for Linux which doesn’t require complex setup on their end? FOSS is a plus, but not a must have.
Regards, rbn


Once you install the client, it will connect to the public server and give you a message of “For faster connections use your own server” or similar, but thats it. You can test that with your own machine (or android/ios if you don’t have a second pc)
