There is also this feature in tailscale, but I haven’t used it myself because I don’t know enough about the security implications to use it: https://tailscale.com/docs/features/tailscale-funnel

It’s honestly amazes me how they figure out stuff like this. I’m labelling it as “magic” until I understand it better.

I see what you’re saying but is it possible that you might have a negative bias to the word “convert”?

My father in law asked me to reinstall Windows on his 10 year old laptop to make run faster. I advised that he will face the same problem with windows and suggested Linux mint as an alternative. I cloned his drive as a backup incase he didn’t like the change, did a clean install on Linux Mint, and showed him the ropes on how to navigate the OS. It’s been a few months now and he doesn’t miss windows and his laptop is more responsive as ever.

Could I say I converted him?

Great advice and I would like to add to this, if you need something easier to run for VMs, go Fedora Server rather than proxmox. If you find your use case needs a bit more complexity, then go proxmox.

I personally found that proxmox was an overkill for what I wanted out of my (old laptop) server.

Definitely not a fix but have you tried this? https://winboat.app/

Wow thank you for this tip! I’m going to give another app a try!

Do you mind sharing what the issues were/was?

I’m the pool of people where my computer “just worked” when installing Bazzite.

Surprised I haven’t seen a mention of ZorinOS yet.
