Ubuntu 22.04 Gnome Remote Desktop allow Ubuntu and Windows computers to play nicely with each other. While there are limitations, finally there is an easy way for a Windows computer to be a remote desktop client to an Ubuntu Gnome Desktop using the freeRDP version of Microsoft's Remote Desktop Protocol. Also included with this video is a brief comparison between Gnome Remote Desktop and XRDP. Unfortunately I neglected to mention that Gnome Remote Desktop may drop the connection when changing desktop settings, such as changing the display settings. 

Command Line Interface (CLI) Command used to start Gnome Remote Desktop:
systemctl --user restart gnome-remote-desktop.service
