I used to run Xen on my desktop as the hypervisor and then have hardware virtualized guests.

This was circa 2008 or so and I feel now is the time to dump my regular Debian and go for Proxmox VE... For my desktop. I'm no Proxmox dev but I know some are using Proxmox on their main desktop/workstation.

I kinda feel it's would be pretty ascetic: running an hypervisor and all your other stuff only inside guests requires self-discipline. It's a bit more involved than just installing a Linux OS and all the software directly onto the "main" Linux.
