Interesting, I just posted a question to Reddit about this[1] but I have been testing and using KRdp myself for a while. I'm one of those users who (due to blah blah blah) must use Wayland, but also must have some remote desktop capability (to connext to my Linux GUI environment).

For this reason, I was stuck on Fedora GNOME for a long while, because only they had it.

KRdp[2][3] looks promising, even though (like GNOME) it requires a GUI session to exist first, before you can connect via RDP. But there are ways to deal with that if you really gotta have it.

But this support is not actually implemented in any app in KDE Plasma 6, is it? My understanding is that it is possible, but there is no built-in functionality to take advantage of it. More "you can build an RDP server now that will work on Wayland" than "there is an RDP server that has been released". (I think?)
