I like Incus a lot, but it’s not as easy to create complex virtual networksnas it is with proxmox, which is frustrating in educational/learning environments.
Comment on I keep waffling on Proxmox. Sell me. For or against.

Don’t use Proxmox, use incus. It’s way easier to run and doesn’t give a care about your storage.

No backup utility like PBS though, thats why I haven’t switched.

Like I said, incus don’t care about your storage.
I’ve never uses PBS, I’ve always just rolled my own. I currently keep 7 daily, 4 weekly and 4 monthly. My data mounts are all nfsv4.

Yeah it sounds nice but too much time investment for me.
I can install PBS client on any system but it requires manual setup and scheduling which I don’t want to do. When used with Proxmox that’s all handled for me.

Proxmox forces you to add a “storage area”, which is fine, except you must use their mount path of /mnt/pve/ and you must add NFS tuning switches via pve or they don’t work.
Proxmox is great, I used it for 8 years. But it is also opinionated and doesn’t like non-standard configs.
