I actually did this and reccomend for a power user (for me it was proxmox didn't quick enough implement virtio-fs), but in case you want a full proxmox like setup I got some recommendations:

• Use LXD-ui. Its a bit annoying with the certificates but gives a nice n easy to use ui (I was only able to figure out how to get this working with the snap, but I didn't try too hard)

• Setup Virt manager through gtk Broadway. This one requires your own security implementations so definitely don't just open it to the whole internet, but it allows you to manage VM's in a browser intuitively.

• Setup ssh, vnc, sunshine, tailscale, a device local to the host you can connect to any number of remote desktop solutions you can cause it all likelyhood setting things up you will break a thing or 2 and it sucks having no access to your device

• Use syncthing or resilio sync to share files between a client and the host PC, saves a lot of time trying fancier stuff like rsync (can probably be used to setup multiple servers storage backup, in case of power outage or whatever but I personally only have 1 host)

I mean that's fine if you dont want kernel space isolation. Lxd and proxmox are not the same.
