For years, KDE users had to use Virtual Machine Managers outside the KDE ecosystem, like GNOME Boxes. Now that's changing with a new native VMM in development for KDE.

    I dig the name honestly. I love how consistent they are about the K.

    I just hope they don’t simplify it to the point of being essentially useless like GNOME Boxes.

      What features would you say Boxes is missing?When I tried it, there wasn’t anything I wanted to do and couldn’t.

        I haven’t used it in so long I couldn’t tell you. I just remember it being over simplified, there were certainly things I couldn’t do, and virtual machine manager exists so I didn’t bother with it past playing around with it.

    Happy to see this coming hopefully might be eventually a decent competitor to virtmanager from Red Hat

    virt-manager always seemed good to me, but I’ll be interested to compare them. Maybe there are things that could be better, that I never thought about
