FreeRDP: A Remote Desktop Protocol Implementation
https://remmina.org/
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?

"I need to test something on a Mac real quick", as solved by AWS EC2
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.

Go To Software/Tools for Programmers
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.

Today I'm going to install Linux on my parents computer. Need help to set it up for easy remote management.

What are some linux utilities/tools/apps you would want to have, that don't exist and think would be really useful.
There is Remmina, but I am not sure it will satisfy your needs. It would be nice to have a well made cross-platform ssh connections manager for people who connect to a lot of servers.

Xpra: Multi-platform screen and application forwarding system for x11
I had good results using Remmina (https://remmina.org/) for RDP to a Windows host from a Raspberry Pi. The only thing that let it down at the time was a lack of "clean" multi-monitor support. I'm not sure if it's been improved in the year since I last tried, but you could fudge it by creating a single window that was 2x monitors wide.
- Is there a way to easily extend my display in mint cinnamon to another PC, using ethernet cable?
-
What are you using for Remote Desktop + SSH client?
Well, i type 'ssh' for ssh in my terminal :) You probably mean a gui for everything together, right? I use Remmina for the windows remotes I have to use at work sometimes from my Linux machine, works good enough and supports all protocols you listed.

Need some recommendations for remote management
I guess Remmina or Ásbrú Connection Manager is worth trying out. Ásbrú seems to be more a universal tool for all types of connections, while Remmina only focus on remote desktop. I've only used Remmina myself, and it does what it's supposed to (tested it with RDP, VNC and SPICE)

can i remote access windows desktop from linux laptop?
Depending on the Linux distro, you'll have a built in viewer or you can try another one. I personally like Remmina

Windows Server Admin Center
Our Linux and Mac users have long used RDP to log into Windows. That's largely obsolete, so the plan is for the remaining Windows to be Infrastructure-as-Code via DSC.

RDP Server for Mac? Looking for a way to control my MAC from my Windows machine (No VNC)
For Linux there is XRDP as well as FreeRDP https://www.freerdp.com both open sourced recreations of the original RDP standard and available for Operating Systems like Linux.

Windows RDP and Microsoft active X issues on widows 11.
FreeRDP has it's own RDP implementation; you can get Windows binaries here (click arch=win64 or arch=win32, and you'll get a list of downloads – you just need wfreerdp.exe).
Note that the program must be configured entirely through command line, and unfortunately the documentation isn't great; you can get list of all supported command-line options by running wfreerdp.exe > wfreerdp.txt from command prompt.

How do I use my surface as a graphics tablet or monitor?
Interestingly, the RDP protocol does have support for sending stylus pressure but FreeRDP does not implement the client end (and I assume other linux RDP clients don't either).
