Does anyone use X11 forwarding with Android devices, so that they can access their UI apps remotely?

If so, what apps do you use and what issues have you run across?

There’s a “MobaXterm ssh” app and while I do love that app on other OS’s it doesn’t seem to be made by the same company so I don’t really trust it

    Yeah I might still go that route, but there’s a lot of stuff where I just need to run a single app and the rest is all terminal so a full VNC session is overboard.

    Also, it’s for a server so the less open ports and daemons running, the better

      Totally fair, but you don’t have to open a port and could do ssh port forwarding if you are already going the ssh X forwarding route. I would try to measure the performance difference between X forwarding and a something like tigervnc. Depending on the specs of your server/clients it might not be very noticeable.
