I use Unraid as my host OS with a Windows 11 gaming vm. If you say at my computer you would never know it's not native. I can shutdown/reboot windows and it doesn't affect any of my home server applications, including a mastodon instance.
This sounds pretty rad. Can you point me to some docs for getting started with this myself?
Edit: I looked up Unraid. It looks like it is a commercial product. Do you pay for it?
If you're interested in the virtualization angle, I can't recommend ProxMox highly enough. It's insanely slick and powerful, and totally open source. It doesn't handle file sharing well natively, but you can easily spin up a file server VM. It can also do GPU passthrough, though it does require a little bit of fanangling in the terminal.
Thank you. After reading up on it, this sounds awesome. I'm going to give it a try!
