I’d expected this but it still sucks.

    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

      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.
