+## When to use which
+
+### Virtual machines
+
+- Virtualising esoteric hardware
+- Virtualising non-Linux operating systems (Windows, macOS)
+- Completely isolating processes from one another with a decades-old, battle-tested technique
+
+> See Drew DeVault's blog post [_In praise of qemu_](https://earl.run/rmBs) for a great use of VMs
+
+### Application containers
+
+- Microservices
+- Extremely reproducible builds
+  - (NixOS.org would likely be a better fit though)
+- Dead-set on using cloud platforms with extreme scaling capabilities (AWS, GCP, etc.)
+- When the app you want to run is _only_ distributed as a Docker container and
+  the maintainers adamantly refuse to support any other deployment method
+  - (Docker does run in LXD 😉)
+
+### System containers
+
+- Anything not listed above 👍
+
+## Crash course to LXD
+
+1. Install snap following [Canonical's tutorial](https://earl.run/ZvUK)
+   - LXD is natively packaged for Arch and Alpine, but configuration can be a massive headache.
+2. `sudo snap install lxd`
+3. `lxd init`
+4. `lxc image copy images:debian/11 local: --alias deb-11`
+5. `lxc launch deb-11 container-name`
+6. `lxc shell container-name`
