much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I found that tailscale (to tunnel traffic to remote devices) with even sunshine (yes, the remote gaming application, just pick the default "desktop" option to stream the desktop) works very well.
And tailscale has an option to transfer files I think.
Ideally you'd probably selfhost tailscale (with headscale) or netbird with a vps+domain, but too much of a hassle for such case.
I'll look a bit into it later, thanks
I would say that depends on whether you only need access to the 1 PC or the entire network.
If just the 1 PC then I recommend RustDesk:
https://rustdesk.com/
Otherwise I agree with @BlastboomStrice that Tailscale is the way to go.
Both options are free, open source, fast and have the option to self host.
Yes, it's just one computer
I would go with RustDesk then which I also personally use to support family and friends where there's only 1 PC they might need help with.
If someone recommends you Tailscale I would suggest Headscale btw for the connection.
Seems like RustDesk is still the most trusted RD service, so I'll start with it, then I will look more into self hosting Tailscale/Netbird and maybe make the switch.
if it's windows i would use rdp over tailscale. don't expose it to the internet.
