OK but it’s not ready now, objectively speaking. Don’t you think it’s a bit of a dick move from your OS to ship a version that breaks VNC and doesn’t offer an alternative?
If you’re using a Pi I don’t see why you’d want to avoid learning Linux. Setting up and connecting to SSH servers is an essential skill for anybody doing anything on Linux that isn’t purely desktop use.
While I generally agree that they should, I disagree that they should have to.
SSH and then some sort of VPN for remote terminal access isn’t too bad.
It has been a decade or more since I tried setting up VNC, but I never could figure out how to connect to an existing X session. Has that setup gotten better?
I’m not sure what this offers vs just using any screen sharing method, or SSH, with a mesh VPN.
The VNC server they previously bundled with raspberry pi os is not compatible with Wayland.
Do you really need to use Wayland on the Pi?
Like it or not Wayland is going to be the future of Desktop Linux. Preparing for that future is a good thing.

I think it offers not having to know enough about each of those pieces to pick one of each and set them up.

Found the Zombie-bot rights supporter!
Hehe.
Won’t this new service help avoid that for users who haven’t figured out how to safely expose a system to the Internet?
Under no circumstances should anyone have a device exposed to the Internet unless they have learned about all of those.
Isn’t that the point of the new features? Now remote access can be had without directly exposing the device to the internet?
