Optimize-Offline VS Remmina

Not OP but there are many projects along those lines, eg. https://github.com/DrEmpiricism/Optimize-Offline/

LTSC is the easy way for a hassle-free experience, and I don't really mean that in a bad way. It does the job, but if you want a better approach (assuming you know what you're doing), a stripped version of normal Windows (preferably Professional version) is better. I have used both and I prefer having my Windows ISOs modified by Optimize-Offline.

https://github.com/DrEmpiricism/Optimize-Offline is free

If you want to be thorough, I recommend Optimize-Offline. Been using this to reinstall my system every now and then and for me, it completely removes the annoying parts of Windows 10.

If you're more experienced, best what you can do is remove all useless things (programs, parts of system) and make all tweaks (UI, privacy..) directly in ISO before installation. There are scripts, for example https://github.com/DrEmpiricism/Optimize-Offline and good resource for advanced guides is mydigitallife forum.

AME had been discontinued due to a takedown. You can still get the torrent, if someone is still seeding it, but files on official site had been taken down. Might wanna check out optimize-offline instead.

The promise behind this sounds like the holy grail of Remote Access.

Is it Linux-only for the clients? Or can you use Mac or Windows to reach it?

Next up, we need some sort of VNC client on our workstation. I strongly recommend Remmina if you value not spending your time debugging and configuring things. Just select "VNC" from the main connection bar's dropdown, punch in localhost:5900, and hit enter. An authentication screen will pop up: fill it with ec2-user for the username, and whatever password you provided to dscl earlier.

Remmina

Using RD Client on DeX to RDP in to Windows. Sometimes i use self-hosted Remmina to get access for Windows, Linux, CLI and other things.

I use the Remmina RDP Client multiple hours per day every day to connect to various servers on both my home and work networks.

I would try out a Windows VM on your home server and use the RDP protocol to connect to it with https://remmina.org/ or https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Vinagre . (Will need a Windows Pro version for enabling remote access with RDP.)

On linux I use remmina to do basically the same thing. I actually think remmina is better, it's really too bad it's linux only.

You can use RDP, it's already installed in Fedora. (Assuming Gnome/Wayland), you go to Settings > Sharing, and enable Remote Desktop. It'll generate a new password for access by default. I only use with MS Remote Desktop from a Mac, but I think people generally like Remmina as a client.

MobaXterm on Windows or Remmina on Linux. Remmina should also work on Windows through WSL. Though haven't tested it that way
