I have a dedicated LXC container called docker where I install all my docker images.
Comment on Docker or Proxmox? Something else entirely?

I use proxmox has the base OS to deploy different virtual machines/LXCs depending on what I need. I have a dedicated docker lxc among those. Say what you will about docker, and man do people have opinions, but proxmox is probably the best way to run a multi lxc/VM setup. Highly recommend regardless of what else you do.

@Vendetta9076 @JeanValjean I happened to be searching on running docker inside lxc today. There were quite a few suggestions on configs to make them not go kurplunk. I think i might follow them..felbane@lemmy.world 5 hours ago
It’s not worth the headache IMO. Just run a docker VM and use lxc for the one-off systems that you want to experiment with.
I have a “production” docker VM and a “sandbox” docker VM and prod only ever runs compose files that I’ve vetted in sandbox. Super stable, basically bulletproof, and still has the flexibility to experiment and break stuff without affecting my core services.

Only pain will you find down that path. I did that for years, but it’s a pain. You have to disable so many security features, and I found it to be incredibly brittle. I found myself fearing all proxmox upgrades because each time it would break the lxcs. I wish you luck

I used proxmox helper scripts for portainer lxc and would get my host system kernel panicked from backing up the lxc that had a NFS share mounted with fstab. Solved it with moving to komodo lxc and setting the NFS share being mounted directly to the container with Docker Compose.if you decide portainer you can set that up with stacks feature. Hope that helps.

I am using proxmox to host my docker machine as well. I’m also using it to host a W11 machine for just-in-casies. Third machine so far is a VM for testing.

Same here and it’s worked well. I migrated my arr stack from another machine where it was in docker and just couldn’t see a reason to spend a bunch of time rebuilding it with LXCs.
