I’m a Windows guy since forever and I recently got into selfhosting. So far its a blast! Are posts about that welcome here?
minus-squareslazer2au@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·2 days agoSure are. I started self hosting with a VM on Hyper-V.
minus-squareOnomatopoeia@lemmy.cafelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 days agoOh, I’m sorry. Lol. Hyper-V is just so bad. Decided to run it for a while as a test, I couldn’t get back to ESXi fast enough, haha. And I come from the Enterprise world where Hyper-V is common.
minus-squareslazer2au@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 days agoHonestly I find hyper v to be easier to work with then virtual box for home stuff and with what Broadcom has done to VMware I am staying away from it.
minus-squareOnomatopoeia@lemmy.cafelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 hours agoYea, the Broadcom crap really sucks. I feel bad for businesses being held ransom by them. Hyper-V just isn’t an option for small businesses, unfortunately (it’s really designed for Enterprise where internal expertise is the norm). I can ignore their nonsense for my home setup., fortunately. Have you tried XCP-NG or Proxmox?
