KVMs have been a the bane of my existence over the last 10 years. Almost 99% of the time they come with some ancient Java dependency that breaks on any modern OS and is barely usable. Not to mention the nightmare-ish KVM experience big players like OVH and Hetzner provide.

This is a superior solution to all of them.

No. Modern IPMI is HTML5 based. Lightyears better than the old java/.net clients or this (awesome) hobby project.

Sure, the modern ones are better. But they are also very expensive, and usually only come with the higher end hardware too.

If you are looking for a reasonably priced server today, you are likely to end up with the shitty Java-based KVM.

Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Supermicro all have firmware patches for their current line of servers that replace the java kvm with html5 versions. I assume most other manufacturers are following suit. It would be exceptionally rare to buy a brand new server today with a java based remote console.
