Alternatives to VirtualBox?

[foremanguy92_@lemmy.ml]

Without any kind of software behind GUI this is almost useless and I think that CLI (or even TUI) are today so underrated that we should give more and more power to them instead of GUI

Really wish we wouldn't have to separate the two. This adds a complication layer for editing Windows users.

Ideally: install app (insert name). Run and enjoy.

I've looked at it. It comes up a lot. Thank you.

[original_reader@lemm.ee]

Good tip. Thanks.

[original_reader@lemm.ee]

Not for the faint of heart, but I'll keep it in mind.

[original_reader@lemm.ee]

That's my struggle with this solution as well.

Still, a solid choice.

[original_reader@lemm.ee]

This "Beginners Guide" they have there is a serious turnoff. They might want to consider a more lightweight and friendly intro to their software.

Still, if I find the time to go through this massive wall of text, I will.

[original_reader@lemm.ee]

This has been mentioned a few times here. Didn't know that. Thank you.

Did you use virt-manager with it?

[mvirts@lemmy.world]

Virt-manager with qemu-system, although if you use the kvm driver for both performance should be about the same I think.

Don't forget virtualbox has a lot of configuration options that may improve performance, Ive never had a problem with it but also never need high performance from a VM.
