I’m using RDP from my CachyOS machine to access my Raspberry Pi and a home server with Linux Mint. The Remmina RDP client works quite well.
I’m quite new to running Linux at home and as an admin, and I recall it took me a bit to get RDP working on my servers but I’ve been very happy with it.
Linux administration is terminal first so SSH is pretty much all you need. Some services have a WebUI to fill the gap, but its bound to that service. Most server variants of distros don’t even include a desktop environment.
KVM-over-IP (hardware device) is likely a more common approach because if you need video, might as well have BIOS access.
There may be something in the virtualization space where the hypervisor provides a remote desktop, but I’m not familiar with this space. A quick search for proxmox and remote desktop yielded mostly results for guest OS setups instead of at the host layer.
You can rdp from nix to win pretty easily, but rdping to linux requires fuckery that works about 80% of the time, even in the most ideal environs.

Its likely hard because its honestly niche.

Vnc over ssh works fine
