Looking for suggestions for game streaming server

Mostly I'm curious what people's setups are. Are you using docker or a VM? Which tools are you using to stream and play your roms or steam games?

Looking for suggestions for myself as well... I'm on unraid and looking to support multiple users.

What kind of machine do you use as a client? And how does performance compare to playing on the server directly?

I use a 2016 Asus Zenbook with integrated intel gpu.

The performance is comparable. The only thing that's different is latency, obviously, although it's fairly negligible on LAN, and encoding/decoding sometimes createa artifacts and smudges, but it's better at higher bandwidth.
