does parsec streaming work on linux?

You could use Moonlight as client and Sunshine as streamer, both are in the store app.

And if you don’t know about port forwarding you can use ZeroTier or Twingate (it’s like Hamachi)

I found Tailscale to be easier to install and configure than ZeroTier, and also to have better performance.

I have never used Twingate.

Yes, but tailscale is a privacy nightmare, because your private keys are stored in their servers

@c10l · edit-2 5 months ago

That makes zero sense. Where did you get that idea from?

For reference, here are their docs describing key management. https://tailscale.com/blog/tailscale-key-management

You can trust them, but you shouldn’t trust any open source project by default, and it’s even more important in the context of big corporate software.

The public keys are stored on the server (by necessity) but not the private keys. The actual connection is directly between two of your own machines, or routed through a DERP server (encrypted end-to-end) in rare cases.

But if you’re concerned, you can instead self host headscale or netbird.

The public keys can be stored anywhere, it doesn’t matter. That’s why they’re called public: because they’re not private, they’re not sensitive, they’re not a secret.

I use parsec pretty often. It should work but moonshine/sunset is less latency in my experience

I think you meant Moonlight and Sunshine xd

I understand you, there are 2 names instead of 1 and they are also more complex, the same thing happened to me at the beginning :)

Parsec afaik isn’t super compatible with linux much, I know the latest raspbian doesn’t support it.

Consider SteamLink it has a linux app and works really well for remote gaming.

Alternative, which I hope people can correct me on.

Could you add minecraft as a game on steam and the setup steam remote play instead?

when i open the alt tab menu it crashes minecraft

@NaiP · 5 months ago

I fail to understand, could you elaborate a bit more on the steps you’ve taken?
