Rustdesk did have some massive controversies in the past, like:
Which raises doubts as to how trustworthy the development team is.
And while some other people say "it's ok that was in the past they fixed it", keep in mind that most of Brave Browser's controversies were in the past, and yet lemmy still hasn't forgiven them yet...so I'd like to know how long it takes for lemmy to forgive past mistakes
I don't think that most are ignoring the past life of RustDesk. I honestly can't think of any widely used software, open or closed source, that hasn't had controversy surrounding it during it's lifespan. Be that as it may, in my humble opinion, RustDesk is about the best thing going in that dept. other than VNC. So, you pick your poison. As far as how long it takes mob mentality to forgive and/or forget, that's not a concern of mine.
