The desktop app is free and open source.</p> <p>Here are a few things I've been working on recently.</p> <h2> Clearer scrolling over Tailscale </h2> <p>I adjusted the encoding strategy to reduce the blur I was seeing while scrolling through a remote desktop over Tailscale.</p> <p>The device list now also has a data-saver toggle and a daily traffic setting. Reducing traffic for static screens is still ongoing work.</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/HatarXx/status/2110552369071259827" rel="noopener noreferrer">Watch the scrolling demo</a></p> <h2> What's changed in 0.7.2 </h2> <ul> <li>A fix for the first input not taking effect.</li> <li>A blurred background during resolution changes.</li> <li>Updated icons.</li> <li>Further work on dynamic encoding parameters.</li> </ul> <p>I also set up several Linux distribution environments for validation.</p> <p>The full demo shows NixOS connecting to macOS, Windows and another remote NixOS machine:</p> <p><a href="https://x.com/HatarXx/status/2110747754943459652" rel="noopener noreferrer">Watch the 0.7.2 demo</a></p> <h2> A small screenshot update </h2> <p>Claude is still doing exactly what I point it at. 👍</p> <p><a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fib9skdcbxbhidcrqf7jv.jpeg" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fib9skdcbxbhidcrqf7jv.jpeg" alt="DeskPort remote desktop screenshot showing Claude" width="799" height="510"></a></p> <p>The project is on <a href="https://github.com/keithxc/deskport" rel="noopener noreferrer">GitHub</a>. If you try it, I'd be interested to hear how it behaves in your setup.</p> <h2> 繁體中文摘要 </h2> <p>DeskPort 0.7.2 完善動態編碼策略，改善透過 Tailscale 遠端捲動時的清晰度，加入省流與每日流量設定，並修復首次輸入、更新圖示與解析度切換背景。這次也在多個 Linux 發行版環境中測試；完整影片示範 NixOS 連線至 macOS、Windows 和另一台遠端 NixOS。靜態畫面的省流仍在優化。</p> <p>桌面端開源免費，示範影片與專案連結見上方。</p> opensource linux showdev productivity
