rdp into Linux is not very common. Most people use vnc. It's not as good as the rdp protocol, which is smarter and less laggy. The project xrdp aims to allow rdp sessions into linux but it uses vnc under the hood, so you may as well get tightvnc running, it's pretty easy.



Here is a good tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-vnc-on-ubuntu-18-04



For faster, smoother experiences, you can use google remote desktop, which is as good as rdp but hard to use because control key combinations are not pushed through and I don't know how to fix that. You can't even do copy and paste from the keyboard.



The best experience I know of is nomachine workstation, but it's not free. There is a free version of nomachine, but it is limited in screen resolution.



I have used all three of the above, but I have not used rdp into linux. For serious use, for example a modern linux desktop running in the cloud, I have come to the conclusion that nomachine workstation is the only real choice. It is a really good solution (optional browser-based access, drag and drop, print to local printer, share drives...), but has an annual cost of about USD 120.
