Please write a blog post detailing this full setup! I have been trying to do some form of this between macos and a linux host for some time now (to try and move as much compute off my MBP as possible) but it has never really worked well.

over years i started to use vnc instead of X as it works better over WAN. Super simple setup. On linux host one just runs an in-memory Xvnc server. The session and running applications are all stay there no matter whether client connects or not. The client runs on any platform.

Xpra is kinda cool, gives you a more "persistent" experience with X forwarding.
