I think the video is quite lengthy. Understandably it is sponsored video and that's how youtuber make it so that more viewing hours.
I use it (self-hosted option) with a customer. It works really well!
We only need remote support sessions from time to time and Teamviewer was not an option anymore unless you purchased a too expensive (IMO) license.
In this case I'm just a final user, so I don't know how easy is to set-up the self-hosted option. Also don't know which are the free plan limitations, but it's definitely worth a try
Here is a video on self hosting RustDesk using docker

I use it every day, and I actually like it better than AnyDesk. I once tried to compile the client's source code, but I couldn't.
Nope ... I run it (the clients) on some old laptops with 8GB RAM running Windows 10 and can't tell the difference between it and TeamViewer. The VPS hosting the relay server is also a minimal VPS running a bunch of other stuff besides this. I'm quite impressed!

AnyDesk is another excellent remote desktop solution.
Of course, but it's not free
I use it at work and at home. No issues.
Best thing is that its really easy to open a new screen at the remote computer. So, if the remote computer has a screenresolution at 800x600, you can press one button and have two screens, one at 800x600 and one that is 1900x2048, and use them as if they are physical screens at the remote. Perfect in work-situations where you sometimes need a bigger screen for your work.

To a mobile?
Can you also connect from PC to mobile if it has the screen lock active?
And therefore completely without remote user intervention?
But not free and/or open-source

Will check this when I am free.
Maybe someone know the answer or you can check it out yourself.
On Windows, I found that I just need to doubleclick and run the exe without installation.
