I should move the part about SSD to hardware/librem mini topic.
On the topic of hypervisor /multiple VMs…
I looked a little more in-depth at qubes, it seems more robust than I expected - watched the videos, good to see it is xen hypervisor at the bottom layer.
Yet, I am reluctant to choose it because of the fancy layer - the qubes layer that is doing the magic packaging by scenario and giving the appearance of containerised apps per window (or whatever that is).
Don’t want to engage in a this vs that debate on hypervisors - so please do not try to convince me (at least not on this thread)
I will return here after I have a hypervisor in place and start working on setting up freebsd.
