I'm a huge believer in remote / cloud development, but this is not something I'll consider using. Here's why: with my current setup, VSCode + Remote SSH and development VMs on a proxmox bare metal box, I have a native IDE experience and don't experience any latency, even though I'm in Asia, and the box is in Germany (Hetzner). If I used an RDP connection, all of sudden this puts a higher demand on my internet connection, while as the VS code remote / code-server solution is quite tolerant of latency spikes / disconnections.
The only downside is that I have to re-do my client-side VScode configuration if I start working from a new desktop. Things like keybindings and preferences are synced to github. Or I could go the cloud route and use my hosted code-server instances, which works quite well.
