Once you’ve throughly beaten your head against every little thing that’s not ready to go out of the box like ESX is, puzzled through cryptic VM errors and Ubuntu being broken on default VM settings, and then browsed the sometimes aggressively unhelpful forums, it’s great!

Did you ever try LXD/Incus?
Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 7 months ago
Nope. I’m pretty happy with proxmox and I dont want to change a perfectly fine, running system

+1 … been using PVE in my homelab for ages and just deployed a small, self-contained (i.e. non-SAN-connected) PVE cluster at the office in light of Broadcom’s shenanigans. I had no idea just how fantastically well Proxmox ran on higher-end hardware with Ceph installed. It’s glorious.

Oh yeah it runs fine until they kill their free tier like ESXi did or… it completely fails over and over again.

Well, suit yourself. :)

I love LXD/INCUS + ZFS! It goes together like chocolate and peanut butter.

Oh yeah, zfs send ftw. I personally run on BTRFS and I can say the same.
