[xubuntu-users] Recommendations for remote desktop (xubuntu to xubuntu) wanted please

[Chris Green]

I run xubuntu 20.10 on both my laptop and on my desktop machine.

What's the easiest/cleanest/simplest way to run a remote desktop on my
laptop?  I.e. laptop is client, desktop is server.

I'm currently using x2go and it does work reasonably well but it seems
a bit heavyweight for what I actually want to do.  In practice there
are just a couple of applications that I want to run remotely and it's
nearly always across a fast LAN so just using X is almost good
enough. (i.e. 'ssh -X <desktop>' and run the program), it's just a
little slow with big GUIs.

So any recommendations for a simple lightweight remote desktop program
would be welcome.  Ideally something that is easily configured to run
individual programs.
