I run 10+ VMs all the time, no way am I going to buy 10 bare metal servers. The ability to create new secure environments on-demand is unbeatable.

Well, i never argued against the clearly powerfull capabilities, those are obviously huge, my point was that as a hobbyist you should consider having the important stuff (finances, official documents, biometrics) in cold storage or on a separate machine as well as stuff like security cameras or doorlocks if you do stuff like this out of it until you fully understand the risks, which are not that easy to grasp for people without experience.
Ofc proxmox and qubes are incredible useful tools of technology, but their high versatility and customizability gives you a lot of tools you need understand and use properly on top of what you are already doing.
