    Yeah, I was getting ready to use NoMachine on a recommendation, until I saw the macos uninstall script and the lack of any progress by the development team, going so far as to delete knowledge base articles and promising updates on the next release three versions ago.

    An added wrinkle is getting local USB devices visible on a VDI, like say a local thumb drive (in this case it’s a Zoom H5 audio recorder) so I can edit audio, not to mention, getting actual audio across the network, let alone being synchronised.

    It’s not trivial :)

    At the moment I’m experimenting with a proxmox cluster, but any VM from VMware don’t just run, so for ancient operating systems in a VM like Win98se, you need drivers which are no longer available … odd since that’s precisely why I run it in a VM. Not to mention that the Proxmox UI expects you to run a series of commands in the console every time you want to add a drive, something which happens fairly often.

    For shits and giggles try finding a way to properly shutdown a cluster without having to write scripts or shut each node down individually.

    As I said, not trivial :)
