DuckClient has become my go-to for quick sessions when I can't use a MUX's custom client. For example I use it on my Chromebook or in breaks at work. It's clean and simple and doesn't aim to do everything; it just fills the mobile/workplace/away from home gap. I hope it stays maintained.

When every other client fails to connect in win10 and I find this.. NICE! It works and doesn't trip firewalls or other idiocy keeping me from using anything else. Not that I really would now, this is small and fast. Works much like I'm used to so that's a bonus. I need to spend more time figuring out things. Thanks!
