Technically no, both use kvm virtualization which is included in the Linux kernal, so both are "bare metal hypervisors" other wise know as class 1 hypervisors. Distinctions can be confusing 😂
Oh dear... I really thought I understood what bare metal means... But looks like this is beyond my tech comprehension
Bare metal is "kernel running on hardware" I think. KVM is a kernel feature, so the virtualization is done in kernel space (?) and on the hardware.
Well this can be a starting point of a rabbit hole. Time to spend hours reading stuff that I don't really understand.
TL;DR: use what is in the kernel, without strange out of tree kernel modules like for VirtualBox, and use KVM, i.e. on fedora
virt-manager qemu qemu-kvm
