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

    I am a huge fan of proxmox, since I first tried it out.

    It does a little bit more than just VM’s.

    On my home server, I have the proxmox distro running as the only service on bare metal, and then all other work is done in the VM’s.
