Thanks Ulrich.
Can anybody answer this question fully? I am trying to decide whether to use x2go when I plan to have x2go clients in the browser. Is there any way to have the x2go client in the browser without NPAPI plugins, which are being universally deprecated?
Also, are there any NX viewers in the browser (using HTML5 canvas and javascript)?

A couple of questions:
Is there a way to view the x2go client in Chrome / Firefox / Safari in OSX / PC yet? The documentation is sparse on non-Firefox clients with non-Ubuntu OSs: http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:advanced:x2goplugin# installation_ubuntu_debian_gnu_linux
Firefox is deprecating plugins very soon: https://www.fxsitecompat.com/en-CA/docs/2016/plug-in- support-has-been-dropped-other-than-flash/ Any contingency plans around this?
Can't answer those .
- Is it currently possible to view x2go clients with noVNC or guacamole?
AFAICS noVNC is a VNC client. guacamole supports VNC and RDP, X2Go uses NX which is neither VNC nor RDP. So the answer is no. But adding support to guacamole would be nice.
