Used Linux Mint Debian Edition for 3 years and had a problem to start one AAA game out of maybe 10.

It was after the release of Steelrising, which relies on a updated nvidia graphics driver for DLSS. It was the first DLSS game for me, I think.

Linux Mint Debian Edition shipped driver 470 and Kernel 5.1 back then and I went lengths to get nvidia driver 525 and Kernel 6.X. After that, it worked fine.

Other issues with a slightly oldschoold podman Version 3.3 led me to switch to Fedora.

Did you set the vnc password for the user?

what’s the main difference in performance between gaming on a windows VM with gpu passthrough on linux vs windows installed the usual way on bare metal

The main difference is the overhead of hosting another OS, increased memory, disk and cpu usage and potential side-effects with swapping, if the hosts RAM usage is too high. In some solutions for GPU passthrough, the main memory for the passthrough GPU is shared with the VM RAM, so the VMs memory size needs to be increased further.

I run a Windows 10 VM with VMware Workstation and gpu acceleration on my Linux machine, because I have a game that does absolutely not run on Linux with Proton.

It runs like native, but the overhead regarding CPU and memory is there.

I would recommend to play the games with proton instead (since you're not into Multiplayer/Anti-Cheat stuff, where most of the difficulties lie today)

A VM for Windows-only software, that doesn't run with WINE and Proton makes sense, but not for playing singleplayer or well supported games on Proton.

The apache2 setting you're looking for is DocumentRoot together with Directory. And maybe VirtualHost or Named Host or ServerAlias.

Depending how your webserver is configured now (using the default apache2 host?), you might want to add either a NamedHost or a VirtualHost with the new DocumentRoot.

Can't tell you how to do it via cPanel, but those settings are available in /etc/apache2/conf/apache2.conf or the like

It's common to have separate folders for different webservices like /var/www/html/yourwebservice.

Having Nextcloud, PiHole and LibreELEC/Kodi is something I wouldn't want to miss
