Is there a friendly alternative to VMWare/Virtualbox? I would move back to Virtualbox, but it’s now owned by oracle

    Libvirt/qemu with either virt-manager or cockpit to control them. Alternatively there are various wrapper projects for qemu that hide the complex command line from you.

        Oh I don’t mind it too much but I have a rich shell history 😀

        Certainly when using the newer options things are more consistent easy to follow. However it’s reputation for complexity isn’t underserved because Qemu is very flexible in what it can do.
