I've been using Windows 10 over RDP for about 1.5 years now. Performance is pretty nice even over 4G. Often 30-60 fps. Text is very sharp and movement (except when HiDPI is in use, see below), such as scrolling or moving windows is fluid. Full screen video works just fine, be it Youtube in a web browser or VLC. Complex websites with WebGL and flashy CSS effects work smoothly.
Two issues I've noticed:
1) Color accuracy is really bad. For example when scrolling a website, sometimes you get yellow artefact blotches over white areas. Forget about using this for anything that needs color accuracy. Other JPEG-like compression artefacts are also present.
2) Performance becomes very bad when display scaling is not default 1:1 at server side, when using HiDpi. Compression artefacts go off the roof as well. Text becomes very blurry.
