We run over 500 concurrent desktops with Guacamole and XRDP in Kubernetes in non privileged conatiners. This allows us have a secure environment while still having it light weight and not having te resort to Citrix for example.
Anyone comparing VNC to RDP favorably is nuts. RDP is a much more optimized protocol for high latency, low bandwidth. Only Citrix compares favorably from user's point of view. Maybe NoMachine NX as well. Both i cannot get to work over https (nomachine) and kubernetes (citrix).
Not requiring a custom, vague client also helps.
XRDP uses a Xorg driver or is able to use a VNC backend. Even then its faster than VNC. It can use pam for authentication.
