Why do people use VirtualBox when there are great FOSS alternatives?

...such as? I also use VB on windows at home; it's what I have always used since a teen, because there were basically no free alternatives

Use Hyper-V on Windows and the CLI on linux

I use VirtualBox on Windows 10 at home, simply because it is easy and free.
