User Installation in Kasm Dockerfile
The copy script resides within the Core images and can be adjusted if necessary. It is visible in the workspaces-core-images Github Repo

Diskless Cluster With PXE?
Another option could be to let the servers just boot into webbrowser and then do somethign VDI (Vitual Desktop infrastructure), for example KASAM: https://www.kasmweb.com/ This would also address/ solve/ simplify many of the mentioned issues above.

Linux Terminalserver - Virtual Desktops - Nomachine alternatives
https://www.kasmweb.com/ is a popular new solution in this space. I've played around with https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-webtop which is based on their kasmvnc and even in the non lossless mode if feels quite snappy.

Making Kasm Workspaces and Traefik work together
I read about Kasm Workspaces here on selfhosted and really wanted to try it out on my Ubuntu VPS. Problem is, I use Traefik for my reverse proxy and it's not technically supported by Kasm. There are also very few hits on searches for the two platforms together, and the information that's available is not very helpful. Maybe I'm the only person really interested in this 😂 but after a lot of time spent figuring it out I decided to write my own guide in case someone else is too. This assumes you already have Traefik setup and running on port 443. The files are available at my Github project.

Should I keep the 1070 in the server?
Check out KASM - https://www.kasmweb.com/ - you can actually play many of your Steam games from it with GPU acceleration.
-
Is there any way to let a client test website without giving them the code?
You could spin up something like Kasm Workspaces, Neko or Docker Webtop.

Please clarify the licensing of Kasm
- The Workspaces Images and Workpaces Core images, are both open source projects that include the image dockerfiles and associated scripts for building the end-user containers such as Chrome , Brave, Ubuntu desktop, etc. You can view the code and licenses here: https://github.com/kasmtech/workspaces-images/blob/develop/LICENSE.md , https://github.com/kasmtech/workspaces-core-images/blob/develop/LICENSE.md

One site to access all your home services?
Check out https://www.kasmweb.com/. You could setup a persistent profile storage on a linux distro of your choosing and have all the bookmarks saved there or even have it open chrome directly with all your shortcuts right from the website using 2fa to protect everything.

Why is remote desktop slow when host monitor is off unless HDMI cable is used?
FWIW I had decent success with Xpra on Linux, and it's still being actively developed, e.g. the HTML5 client is considered stable now: https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/

Apache Guacamole: a clientless remote desktop gateway
I use xpra for similar purposes (https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/)
> Xpra is known as "screen for X" : its seamless mode allows you to run X11 programs, usually on a remote host, direct their display to your local machine, and then to disconnect from these programs and reconnect from the same or another machine(s), without losing any state. Effectively giving you remote access to individual graphical applications. It can also be used to access existing desktop sessions and start remote desktop sessions.

Firefox 121 defaults to Wayland on Linux
I want to move to the "future", but I use several firefox profiles via xpra in combination with xdotool based hotkeys. The fluidity with which I can control my different profile windows without a mouse and with which I can switch between computers with no lag with this setup is a big reason why I have stuck with a Linux desktop, so I am sad to see those super powers go away for no perceived benefit. I have tried Wayland several times now and don't notice any performance differences, just more bugs in Wayland.
`xdotool search` seems like it has been deemed a security issue for reasons I can't understand (if someone has hacked in to the point that they can even run such query commands, surely I'm already pwn'd). Maybe I'm oversimplifying it, but to me it's like being upset that someone who broke into your house can see the color of your curtains. The powerful feature set of X far outweighs these minor security concerns.
And it looks like xpra is facing huge issues switching over https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/issues/387 :(, I have yet to be as satisfied with any other free remote desktop software (paid nomachine is close but less scriptable).
I hope these aren't fundamental limitations of wayland, but the challenges seem steep.

Advice on getting a 16GB Nvidia card..
They all operate(d) their GPUs just fine. I'm a heavy user of VirtualGL + XPRA for remote graphics usage, which is a constant factor in my life and work. When they're not doing graphics of some sort, they're hunting pulsars in a GPU-centric compute mode.

FreeRDP: A Remote Desktop Protocol Implementation
I've long been a huge fan of Xpra https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra , both because of its "screen for X" original focus (though now it supports shadowing an existing session).
There was NoMachine / nx / freenx but it always seemed to be a weird animal to me, requiring installation as a separate unix user, at least at the time.

Cool but Obscure X11 Apps
One of my favorite bits of software is Xpra [0], "screen for X". You'd run it and it would start another X server (start apps in it with `DISPLAY=:1 xterm` or whatever), and you would "attach" it to your running X server with `xpra attach`.
You can attach to e.g. `ssh://hostname/:1`, so I ran a firefox instance on a homelab server and attached to it from my laptop and my desktop to not have to bother keeping bookmarks, tabs etc in sync.

Alternatives To X2go?
I’ve used Xpra in the past to connect to a remote system for GUI stuff, but I almost exclusively use ssh because most of the time I don’t need to run a remote windowing system.

I want to (securely) remotely access my Pop!_OS desktop from my Pop!_OS laptop - what’s the best way to do this in 2023?
To add to this if you need to access graphical applications of an entire desktop environment you can use Xpra or MOONLIGHT (I suggest the second one if you want to game on the remote desktop or need very low latency in general), you can use both of these through a ssh tunnel (you need to enable this and X forwarding in the config) so if you setup and allow access to ssh correctly you can also use these without too much of a hassle.
