I’d like some recommendations as a beginner in the virtualization space for good GUI software for running vms for both experimentation and server use.
I’ve used virtualbox on Windows before but are there any better alternatives on Linux? I hear a lot of praise of QEMU but this seems to be only terminal based like what you do with containers.
VMware workstation is free but again, I’d like to know your thoughts on other good beginner options.
Thank you advance and have a good day/afternoon/night
Virtual Machine Manager is a great GUI frontend for KVM/libvirt and QEMU, and basically the gold standard for VM management on Linux
Cool thing is it also supports management through ssh, so you can use it as a server orchestrator if your needs don’t require something more involved like proxmox
