Hah I'm your mirror version -- my linux machines are all VMs running on FreeBSD hosts!

  Oh you use bhyve? I've tried to use it but I dound it pretty difficult for systems that need a GUI. Maybe I should revisit.

    Yep, most of my linuxes are headless -- but I do have a VM which I pass a graphics card through to for games and ai stuff though -- works really well (as long as you don't reboot the VM, it has a hard time attaching to the gfx card the second time for some reason, not looked into it much) sysutils/vm-bhyve makes it quite friendly. I wouldn't use it for work, though, just personal. Work is all enterprisey kubernetes stuff. Edit: there is a 'proxmox-like' for FreeBSD out [0] -- I did try it on a couple machines and couldn't get the network working, but consoles seemed to work.. Kinda. 0: https://sylve.io https://sylve.io

      Ah I don't really have a second GPU to dedicate to it though. A virtual console like in VMware or QEMU/KVM would be great. Thanks for the heads-up about sylve! I'll check it out. For me it's all personal too. For work we still use VMWare a lot.

  Is bhyve working well for you? Maybe I'll try that in my next rev of my home lab.
