Had several old PCs over the years from relatives, but either gave them to other people or threw them to the trash because I didn’t see the usefulness back then…
Right now all I have is my PC (which I guess I could put VMs on), and maybe a few phones (maybe just because they kinda are there like backup phones), which I couldn’t find how to root, if these are of any use with unrooted Termux.
Do you have any advice about it? Should I start with my PC with VMs? An unrooted phone with Termux? Try to look somewhere that is gonna get rid of PCs or something? If so, where?


Hyper V is bare metal. Hyper V is a type one hypervisor. The hyper v kernel runs under the windows kernel, when you run hyper v, the windoss you interact with is transparently converted into a VM, with all devices passed through to it.
Anyway the tools to manage hyper v aren’t anywhere near as mature compared to proxmox and it’s a pain when you hit corner cases so I wouldn’t recommend it, BUT it is a type 1, highly performant hypervisor.
