I’ve been dual booting Linux and windows for about two years now, but in those two years, I have never booted into windows, except by mistake.

This made me think about removing windows and just saving that wasted space for Linux. I only ever dual booted for the off chance the peer pressure to play anti cheat games was too great, but so far it hasn’t.

For the off chance where I want to play a game that doesn’t run well on Linux, is it a good idea to do that via VM instead of dual boot, or is it too much hassle? Will there be performance hit or any issues with those games?

    for hypervisor i’m using libvirt+qemu. by doing this, a few lines in the .xml for the vm is all that is needed for me to enable some hyper-v feature flags to spoof to windows that it’s not a vm. check to see if proxmox has some hyper-v features you can enable for this purpose.
