Ok so I guess I am the stupid because I always assumed kernel-level virtualization meant that you were limited to guest OS’s that used the Linux kernel. I was drawing incorrect connections to Docker
I think it should work with some version of the Q35 chipset, if not PC should work. But Wine might be a better option if you just want to run some old version of office (or frankly just use LibreOffice)
Virtualizing Windows 10 for various binbows-only work stuff
Virtualizing Windows XP to run Office from before it started sucking
Why would these not work in KVM exactly?

TIL
Yeah virtualization and containers are very different things. That said virt-manager can be used with LXC as well :)
For XP, the machine KVM presents as may be too new, but that isn’t an issue with non-virtualized QEMU.
