I thought if you were testing and creating VM's in a homelab, that microsoft offered Windows keys that activated for a period of time, no?

I seem to recall someone telling me that about vm labs. Is this still the case?

MSDN used to be free so this was a common approach, but they re-org’ed all their programs so I think those keys are now hiding under the paid MSDN program…

You can still get Windows 11 Dev VMs for free;

And you can get Evaluation keys for 11 Enterprise, Server 2022, SQL Server 2022, and System Center 2022.
