After installing Xubuntu I noticed that there was no Desktop Sharing option and most of the results I googled involved setting up and configuring tightvncserver, which was not as simple as I would had hoped since you had to deal with X sessions.

I literally just want to connect to my PC from my iPad when I’m using it on the couch.

The remote desktop feature can usually be enabled in Settings > Sharing, however this only seems to be functional when NetworkManager is installed and functional. Alternative Desktop Environments
