Not just the terminal, I mean a full remote desktop. What's the best method? Not just from one linux machine to another machine, but also remoting from a windows machine to a linux machine.
I'm a bit of a linux novice, but trying to do more.

Just a data point: OP is looking for a desktop solution, and Rust Desk may be fine for that; I was pretty impressed with it. However, I caution about using it to share out on Android. I traced down random crashes and reboots into safe mode to Rust Desk running on a Pixel. It took me a while to figure out which app was causing it; it seemed to have no correlation to use, time, or anything else I could discern. They only went away after I completely uninstalled Rust Desk (which is why it took so long; I couldn't correlate it to running Rust Desk, so I didn't suspect it).
The reboots into safe mode turned me off to it on mobile - I had no issues at all running the desktop client on Linux. Android aside, it's a really nice bit of work, and I fancy even nicer than VNC, which for me is saying a lot.
That said, on a fast network, I still prefer a good old X client over ssh to VNC, if for no other reason than easier per-app windows - but I like the L&F and performance of X on a fast pipe.
Good to know since I'm using a pixel as well. For remoting to my own devices. Since they are all running Wayland now. I plan to try out waypipe soon. I read it's like a replacement for running X over ssh.
For helping family members I was looking for something more user friendly. Which is why I was looking into rust desk.
Well, don't let me put you off of it; Rust Desk is pretty nice, and user friendly. Just... keep any eye on it if you run it on your phone. Maybe you won't have any problems, but if you start noticing reboots, you'll have an idea of why.
