For example, It's BitLocker encryption may well contain a back door (we'll never know for sure), hence I've created an encrypted volume using VeraCrypt on all my BitLocker-encrypted drives.
Windows is a big nope in my life. Linux is very VERY stable and I can get done anything with linux. Only thing why I'm plannig to have a windows (dualboot) is because I'd like to write some nasty soft.
I operate In an opposite state- Windows as my primary platform, and Linux second to that.
I run Linux In multiple VMs and because I well and truly have the hardware to run them, very little difference Is experienced to that of a physical/hardware-based environment.

Well, we wont be friends! I run win machines in VMs on top of Linux. It runs smoothly although it gets luggis when I connect remotely through ssh port forwarding. Anyway have you ever tried Proxmox virtualization platform? It's pretty cool to manage your VMs in the web. Check here:: https://www.proxmox.com/en/

Latency and response time Issues are expected to some degree when connected remotely.
The virtualization platform you've provided, was on my to do list and I've completely forgot about It.
Thanks for refreshing my memory.

This is actually far worse than I thought, I knew windows wasn't the best when it comes to privacy and security but this is a lot worse than I would have expected

Ofc it is! Whole world got to go open source and decentralized, that's the only solution for this f*cked up situation.
