I’m with you for the most part, but I’m slowly moving over to podman over docker for security and simplicity. LXC is convenient for proxmox, and you can make a golden snapshot, store your data and config in a bind mount, and replicate some of docker’s features. Lately, I run a privileged lxc with rootless podman running dockge. Seems to work well for now.

I’ve just learned about converting docker containers to lxc natively, so that’s my next project.

LXC with cloud-init and ansible on proxmox gives you docker features without the docker headache.

I have TrueNAS Scale running inside of ProxMox, but I plan to replace it with a Turnkey system on top of an LXC instead.

For as convenient as TrueNAS is, it is not a replacement for ProxMox. ProxMox is designed for business, and it shows in comparison. The logical layout, the backup options, the storage flexibility, etc.

In comparison, TrueNAS feels more homelab hobby. For reference, I could see ProxMox on a business install with enterprise support. TrueNAS, I’m not so sure.
