For those brave enough, this year I finally took the plunge and went with Linux on my desktop.

I went with Pop OS, and after a few days decided to try the cinnamon desktop env. since it's a little more familiar. Some things took about a week to get figured out, but now I don't ever want to go back.

I switched to Mint from windows 10 about three months ago (when I upgraded my video card). Everything is so much smoother and just works. Except Remote Desktop… can’t figure that one out.

Did you try remmina?

There are a few ways to go about it. You can try to use the microsoft RDP like system with XRDP. Or you can go over to VNC.
But I agree, it is a little bit of a fiddle. Keep at it!

Try ThinLinc and ThinLinc server - they work great for me.

If you want to remote into the linux box, I recommend sunshine+moonlight. They are designed for “gamuurz” but that just means they are efficient.
