Virtual Network Computing. It’s basically an alternative to remote desktop.
I’d imagine you could run a VNC server, and then just login from the same PC. This kinda what you’re looking for?
There are some limitations, like I don’t think hardware acceleration would work, for example.
Edit: I did a little searching for “nested x-session” and found out that there is a specific x11 program to do exactly what you want called xephyr. There’s also a brief guide on the arch wiki.
I’ve got to agree with this. I love Linux and have run it on my servers for years. That said, I’ve got Mint on my laptop and tried to print an image over wifi at a friend’s place and could not for the life of me get it to print properly.
For the most part things do just work, but there are a lot more “obscure” scenarios that are handled correctly in windows but not Linux.
I also find that when things go wrong on Linux, they are harder to fix. I’ve had several times I’ve had to deal with circular dependency hell to get something to install properly. I did eventually get those problems resolved, but it was often a single person having a tangential problem that hinted me to how to solve it.
Edit: I think if your usage patterns are straight forward enough, it is by far and away the better choice. If you do the same stuff all the time, it’ll pretty much never break, which is not something I could say about windows. So for OP, it sounds like it would be a good fit.
Backblaze regularly releases failure rate statistics of their drives, and it’s often a big enough dataset to be quite meaningful. I haven’t been keeping up with it lately, but there certainly was a period of time where there were substantial differences in the failure rates of different manufacturers.
So while you do still need to have drive failure mitigation strategies, buying more reliable devices can definitely save you time and headache in the future by having to deal with failures less frequently.

Lol. I mentioned it not because I care about the karma, but because I’ve never seen any of my comments instantly start at -1 and it was mildly interesting.
I mean, I do care a little about my imaginary internet points, but that’s not why I mentioned it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Outside, maybe? lol
Edit: Weird, my comment started at -1 karma. Is this thread being botted or something? Oh I accidentally downvoted myself…
If there’s one form of social structure that has a worse track with fewer successful examples than communism, it’s libertarianism. Hope you like bears.
I’d highly recommend hydrus network for that sort of thing. It’s exactly what it’s designed for, and is quite mature but still very actively developed.
