StackOverflow says that it can be done by editing xrdp.ini:

Is there a specific reason for choosing RDP?
VNC is the most common protocol in Linux. And RustDesk is also a good, more advanced alternative.

which generative model did you use to generate this post?

your best bet is probably to take a look at Lutris. Both client and website. And then go from there.
Think about how multiple instances of the website should interact with each other. And think about how the client would work with such system.

Also, aren’t there a few open source Steam clients? See if there is anything useful in those projects as well.

ah yes, that, wormhole.app, that is closed source. (but if I am reading this correctly, some early iteration of it is open source. https://github.com/saljam/webwormhole )
Magic wormhole is a different thing.

can you link to the post that claims the protocol is not open? I’m interested in looking into that
anyway, source for the magic wormhole can be found here: https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole which also links to both the Mailbox code and the Transit Relay code.

While others already pointed out the similarity to persistent LiveUSB, I would argue that this also feels a bit like Android desktop modes, like Samsung Dex.

This could be relevant:

yes, valid point, thank you for the correction

As jet points out, QEMU for actual hardware virtualisation.

There is one relevant thing, which is not exactly in the same category, but does somewhat similar thing:
containers
most popular example being Docker
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Containerization_(computing)
containers don’t emulate whole hardware stack like virtual machines do, they just run the guest OS on top of host OS.
so because they don’t put resources towards emulating hardware, they are much more resource efficient.
so if your problem is “I’m running Fedora but I want to run something that for some reason runs just on Ubuntu”, then you could use containers for that.
containers are mostly used in headless environments (as in servers, no GUI), so running and displaying desktop Linux inside them is a bit tricky, but it can be done.

Lemmy is not like Reddit, you can edit the title even after the post was made.

Also, the latest release of Linux Mint is Xia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Mint#Release_history

Termux + Termux-x11 + Proot for Linux software.
You can do it without Proot if all the software that you need is already in Termux-x11 repository.
SmartDock / Taskbar for Android applications.

I made a relevant XDA thread some time ago.

The term that is often used for that is “source available”. Good example of other software in this category would be what, Unreal Engine?

Heard good things about https://plausible.io/

ah, ok, I was thinking of “Galileo”:

does author know about the Deckard thing that Valve is supposedly working on?
from what I understand, it will be some kind of Steam Machine with focus on In-Home Streaming.

doesn’t Steam Hardware Survey report way higher percentage of Linux users?

(Statista, Blackdown)

wouldn’t Valve’s numbers be more reliable?

Funny how people tend to quote Linus Torvalds on technical issues in order to prove a point. I hear the guy barely made it through college.

Actually, I lied about even that. I was thrown out of fourth grade because I couldn’t write my own name, and it’s been all downhill from there. I had to lie about getting into college just so that I’d have better chances of making a career here at McDonalds - if you have a college degree (or you lied about having one), they don’t make you scrape the burger pans.

heh, he had good sense of humour already back in 1999

there is a bridge, but some parts of the fediverse got very mad about it

Other comments already pointed to some very good software solutions.
But I would argue that absolutely the biggest barrier to entry for the masses is hardware.
Restoring an old PC or making some cable spaghetti with some SBC is currently too advanced for average person.
Self-hosting for the masses would require some new form of home servers.
Something modular, where adding new components would be as easy as playing with Lego bricks.
