A Gnome popup window titled "Remote Desktop" that has a toggle switch labelled "Allow Remote Interaction" set to Off. It also has a button in the top right highlighted in blue labeled "Share". All I did was touch the trackpad on my Steam Controller.

My Steam Controller arrived and I'm now getting very familiar with this screen...
Wayland seems to use remote desktop as some weird 'security!' kludge to pass through emulated inputs?
I'd probably have been bombarded with this sooner if I ever bothered experimenting with my PS5 controller.
