I suggest removing vino from the Recommends. - Cinnamon is the only package in Debian with a package relationship to vino. Once that's removed, the Debian GNOME team would remove vino from Debian - vino's last release was in 2016. It is currently archived which means it's not possible to submit bug reports, bug fixes, or translation updates for it. - I personally am uncomfortable with the VNC protocol since it is not very secure by default. I understand that it is late in the Trixie release cycle so I consider this more of a goal for Forky (although you could do this sooner if you want).
Thanks for your suggest, any advice for improvement is appreciated.In fact, on the remote access part things are not well done, I had searched a time ago, but I had not found optimal solutions, well-supported, simple (also for inexperienced users) and that support both xorg and wayland, there would be gnome-remote-desktop, but unfortunately it is tied to mutter and some parts specific to gnome.
Do you have any suggestions?Since wayland support of cinnamon is experimental and incomplete, I could also replace it with a specific software for xorg. I was thinking about removing vino and leaving x2goserver as default but it doesn't seem to have been maintained much in recent years (just a quick look, I haven't used it for many years so I don't know his condition for sure).
Regarding vino itself it seems to me to have a high popcon despite being an abandoned project (upstream), and recommended only by cinnamon metapackage, about half of the users in theory install it manually (and therefore certainly use it).
