Well, I can agree with that. But there is one problem: mainstream doesn't care. Websites are bloated, pictures, videos everywhere, tons of JS etc. Regarding X2Go - X11 is being obsolete, Wayland is not developed with low-bandwidth remote access in mind, modern GUI toolkits make heavy use of bitmaps etc. All that leaves not so much choice - transfer bitmaps, bitmaps and more bitmaps. Compress them, cache, etc, but use bitmaps. // Offtopic: as we joke - Ukraine has good and very cheap internet just because there is no Ministry of Internet here :)
