I assume what you’re looking for specifically here is a complete platform that you can install on bare-metal, not just the actual hypervisor itself. In which case consider any of these:
Proxmox
XCP-NG
Windows Hyper-V Server Core (basically Windows Server Nano with Hyper-V)
Any Linux distro running KVM/QEMU - Add Cockpit if you need a web interface, or use Virt-Manager, either directly or over X-forwarding
This is true, but not everyone gets to use a linux system as their main desktop at work. I’m not aware of a windows version of virt-manager, but if that exists it would be fucking rad.
If you’re already running windows, hyper-v. theres proxmox, and tons of others. So they are mistaken. 🤣
They mean that they aren’t offering another solution.
I know, but this is the way I read it when they claim to give no option.
All of them not equate in same league. Do you know any type 1 free supervises out there? Xen probably.
Proxmox, Xen, hyper-v are all considered type 1 as far as I’m aware.
Proxmox

No need for X forwarding, you can connect Virt-Manager to a remote system that has libvirt,
This is true, but not everyone gets to use a linux system as their main desktop at work. I’m not aware of a windows version of virt-manager, but if that exists it would be fucking rad.
KVM makes proxmox type 1
