I used to use VirtualBox on a Linux, but these days I&#x27;ve migrated to KVM&#x2F;Qemu[0] + Virt-Manager[1]. It&#x27;s much nicer to use native Linux virtual machine and not have to worry about kernel modules and proprietary licenses.<p>That said, the UI polish isn&#x27;t as nice or intuitive as VirtualBox.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.linux-kvm.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.linux-kvm.org&#x2F;</a><p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;virt-manager.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;virt-manager.org&#x2F;</a>

Virtualbox is my go to on Windows. I have used VMware workstation but didn&#x27;t see any advantage other than the availability of proper support for small businesses or individuals.<p>Why do people use VMware workstation over virtualbox?

Any particular reason this made it onto the HN homepage?
