Comment on Rustdesk's lesser known features

Ive been wanting to try out rust desk for a few weeks now but im not currently in a position where I can test it out.

I saw it uses a public relay server and they have a subscription model to self host, and I’m not particularly interested in either of those options. Are you able to self host a server for free if youre just connecting to a single computer?

You can host the ID and Relay servers for simple remote access at no cost. The pro subscription is mainly about account and device management.

:::spoiler compose.yaml

services:
  hbbs:
    container_name: hbbs
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbs
    volumes:
      - ./data:/root
    network_mode: "host"
    depends_on:
      - hbbr
    restart: always

  hbbr:
    container_name: hbbr
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbr
    volumes:
      - ./data:/root
    network_mode: "host"
    restart: always

The open source server allows unlimited connections I think. The point of the paid server is user & device management, shared address book and some other enterprise features
