Comment on New server for the family, Proxmox or TrueNAS, LXC or Docker?

I used to run proxmox, but I wasn’t using most of its functions. I now have migrated to a couple of low power Debian machines on zfs with lxc. I use incus and ansible to manage everything, including backups.

Aha! I was considering moving from proxmox to incus too, but incus seemed quite new and not much documentation (at the time)
How do you find it now?

Really great. Passing through hardware is a lot easier, settings can be defined in profiles (containers that should start with boot, which should have uid/gid mapping, privileged, etc), and overall system memory usage is way lower.

Nice. I’ll go that way when I next brave the dust and cobwebs where the server’s currently located

It is a bit of a different approach than proxmox, but well worth the small learning curve.
