G’day, all. Will throw this one out to the HLB brains trust.
For the rare times I use Windows now days, Remote Desktop is a very well polished feature. I tend to have a Windows VM set up on one of the Proxmox machines with specific Windows-only tools (or specific Windows versions of Windows-only tools in some cases), and start the VM to remote in to use those tools rather than maintain separate Windows PCs.
I’d like to do something similar with Linux - have a Debian VM set up in a similar fashion. (I understand I could probably use containers or distrobox or any number of other tools, but I’d like to keep the same workflow, if possible). I recall decades ago having X11 forward the desktop to another machine, but I don’t believe this is possible in Wayland? (If it is, please show me how!).
Searches seem to reveal a plethora of Linux Remote Desktop tools, with no clear stand out. Any recommendations from the HLB crowd? I’ve always found VNC variants to be laggy but functional. Fine for doing a spot of administration, but not really good for multiple hours of desktop work in the same way that RDP is on Windows.
