I believe Cinnamon is just a window manager on top of GNOME?
It's not. It's independent from Gnome.

It's both and Wayland doesn't have an RDP server. Both sides run rustdesk and one side does the connection using the connection info provided from the other side.All the googling I've done hasn't resulted in any docs on how to download/setup/configure rustdesk on the server side. Do you have a pointer on how to do this?
You don't need the server side that I was referring to. You can use their public infrastructure. You just run the program on each side and the connection information is right there in the application.
I'm also assuming his desktop is wayland, given it's the fedora default, so should I convert to Xorg? It's a basic 10yo PC with a built-in video card and 64GB RAM.
It's not the "Fedora default". It depends on the desktop. Most are going that direction, but many haven't got there yet.
It doesn't look like Cinnamon has a built-in desktop sharing system, but you could use VNC or xrdp. There are various options you can find: https://www.google.com/search?q=cinnamon+remote+desktop
