  There is a KVM equivalent on MacOS, Apple’s Hypervisor virtualization framework.

  KVM is just the kernel side, you need QEMU (for example) on userland. On MacOS you have now UTM.

    I didn’t even know that was a thing. Cool!

    Our move to XCP-ng Hypervisors with XOA has been a great experience.

    I would argue for Apache Cloudstack personally.

    And virt-manager is pretty solid for hobbyist tinkering too.

      Yeah I’d second that. It’s good for discovering valid settings as you get start, and then once you want to do more complicated stuff, the XML option view becomes useful, and then if you want to try on CLI after all you can start using virsh to administer the same VMs.

      At least that’s how I progressed through the stages as I started messing with a Windows VM for a game that doesn’t lend itself to hosting on Linux natively.
