x2go is perfect for this. I used to run an instance on AWS, but I just keep one at home now. It pipes everything through a PIA vpn.

How does x2go compare with xpra?

As far as I can tell, xpra uses the X protocol, which is laggy over links under 10 Mb/s.

X2go uses the NX protocol, which is designed for slower links, so it works better across the internet.
