The first time I used a remote workstation for any period of time kinda spoiled me. It was beefier than my real laptop, I had super low latency. The experience overall was kinda nice actually, convenient to leave long running task active while I put the laptop in the bag. The laptop was always cool and quiet (unusual at the time considering the workloads).
After that, they have always been ridiculously slow, locked down, goes into hibernation if you leave it unconnected for too long. Mostly running windows. Sometimes forced to use video conferencing through it, with horrendous audio/video latency. Almost impossible to be productive on.
I think remote workstations, "done right" actually can be nice. Especially considering new editor integrations and/or e.g gpu intensive tasks. But I wonder if any org actually bothers to do it "right".
