So far I've had a very good experience with RustDesk. It installs practically immediately and lets a remote agent connect without issue. I've used it on Windows and Linux (Mint obviously) without issue. If you need to connect to someone else to provide support, you need to sign in, but it makes this very easy by integrating with Google and Microsoft sign-in, as well as the option of creating your own account with them. I daresay that it's competitive with Teamviewer. It appears that it also prevents the remote support person from interacting with the RustDesk client itself, so they can't change the remote user's RustDesk settings. That seems like a prudent security measure.
