Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I really don't think you regret a God damn thing broadcom.
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
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:
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
I'm not sure why you're getting down voted, you're right. I'm not sure if anyone would run Proxmox for their enterprise hypervisor? I mean HyperV is okay. Slim pickings for big orgs. I know there's Nutanix, but most folks are moving to the big three for VMs and hosting.
I am running proxmox at a moderately sized corp. The lack of a real support contract almost kills it, which is too bad because it is a decent product
