    RIP VMware.

    Broadcom prefers to milk the top 500 customers with unreasonable fees rather than bother with the rest of the world. They know that nobody with a brain would intentionally start a new datacenter with VMware solutions

      It’s really sad, they used to be amazing and the goto for running Linux VMs on back in the day. Still haven’t seen anyone do hardware pass through as well.

      When big players like AWS are running KVM and XCP-NG, yeah. VMware is basically the also-ran at this point.
