> It seems like one of the biggest complaints about Wayland is that it doesn't work over a network. Does anyone actually work that way? I've tried it a few times, and every time I tried it it turned out to be unusably slow.
I spend most of my time in Emacs on Linux. At an old job I had to use a Windows desktop, so I used a full screen Cygwin X server to display an Emacs window running from one of our Linux test servers. This also had the advantage that Emacs would keep running in Screen, even after my dev machine was turned off.

Note that you can't do this using GTK, due to a long standing bug https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/221 . I avoid this by compiling Emacs to use the "lucid" toolkit.
Note that Emacs also works in a terminal, so I could just use SSH or MOSH rather than X11, but I much prefer the GUI version.
