   How do you deal with GUI apps? I've been using VMs and containers for a while now, and VMs seem like the only way to run GUI apps.

     I used to run a bunch of VMs (Virtual Machines) on my (private, homelab) servers. During my last update round I moved the last one to a container. I now consider VMs to be legacy technology and I feel good about that. But again, that’s just me and my homelab. VMs were a special kind of magic that I really liked (especially live migrating VMs!). Containers are quite boring. But boring is good :)
