Would this work? (piefed.zip)

Hello again!

Recently had made a post where y'all helped me out as a noob setting up a server. One comment in particular gave me an idea and now I'm wondering if this would work and would it perhaps be easier to do, since I've had trouble figuring out how to (safely) set up the remote connection stuff.

I installed Fedora Kiinoite on the server/htpc and was learning how to use Podman since I don't want to go through the trouble of using Os-tree.

But it just occurred to - would it work if I used Gnome Boxes to run Cosmos Cloud and run all the services I want to remotely connect to from there? Or would there be an issue since it's a VM? Cosmos Cloud seems to make it easy to securely remotely connect, and it uses containers too.

My NUC didn’t cost 75$ when I bought it new back then but can absolutely be found for less now. And it runs 40+ containers as well. I wouldn’t imagine a need for a big rack setup (for me). Potentially a newer NUC someday, but it’s hard to find a good excuse to switch.
