Your clear misunderstanding of what the conversation was about is evident you haven't attempted to use XS and XO.
I fully admit that I stopped reading the thread about 5 posts in.
But I did and do have an XS and XO system currently running that I just haven't migrated away from XS yet.
I'm at the point where I could use ESXi free and never be able to tell the difference other than some scripts would need modified. I'd also have a wider range of tools to use.
Eh? I'm not sure what point you're trying to make?

No templates is a bit one for me.

Right now I use KVM. We don't back up the VMs at all really other than Gitlab. Everything is stored in code. If there is stateful data it's mounted from somewhere or it's replicated between multiple VMs on different hosts. So I could take out my KVM servers and replace them with the free ESXi and probably not know the difference.

Is that still the case with the web ui? I though the only limitation these days was the backup API.

Yeah, you need vcenter for templates

This is why I don't use HyperV
Setup new server gave it a name and IP connected to it via HperV Manager on Windows 10 Pro machine:-
Tried 5nine when creating a switch:-

Do I try KVM?
Or go straight to what I know and XenServer? -
Am I right in thinking KVM is not a type 1 hypervisor as in install on the host from a iso?
You need a base Linux OS like Ubuntu then install KVM.
