I would do everything in VMs, mostly Linux and probably one Windows. Proxmox would be only for managing VMs. I want everything in VMs because it’s more flexible for partitioning storage and i can have both Linux and Windows runing at the same time (which can’t be done with dualboot). I am student of computer science so i use it for programming, both for college and side projects. Sometimes there are a lot of programs i have so OS kind of gets bloated, not so much from performance standpoint but just mental overhead of having 10, 20, 30 programs and having to keep in mind what program needs what dependencies, env variables, etc… so i want to kind of group them to VMs and CTs.

I am trying to install and setup proxmox on laptop and use it as daily driver. I want to make network setup that can use both ethernet and WiFi, whichever is available and i want VMs to be able to access LAN because some things dont work otherwise (like NDI). I have writen config file that makes 2 bridges and every VM would have 2 interfaces. I havent installed Proxmox yet because i dont want to mess things up (it wouldn't be first time :) ). My question is does this config look ok and are there some recomendations.
/etc/network/interfaces
```
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# Ethernet interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
# WiFi interface
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
# Ethernet bridge
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
# WiFi bridge
auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet dhcp
bridge_ports wlan0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
```
I have thought about that, but Proxmox already has built-in a lot of things for virtualization and managing VMs and has less bloat because it has only one purpose.
