I barely check the updates and new software sections these days, but I’m always enjoying the Weekly Highlights and the Newswire. Pretty sure I’m reading at least two of the linked post each week

Sure, you can probably build something similar with zfs snapshots, but it’ll likely not be as convenient. Have a VM? Create daily snapshots. Break something and can’t figure it out? Just reset to the last backup to a complete working state.

Personally, I have the containers’ mounts in the VMs (ergo on the nodes’ disks) and just using the NAS for the backups. Even if both Proxmox nodes catch fire I can just import the snapshot to a new one and have a working VM in the same state again. That’s a whole different level from re-cloning all the compose stacks, mount NFS shares etc. It’s the ease of use.

I use both. The main benefit of proxmox is having VM snapshots/daily backups, if you mess up, just restore the whole thing. You also have stricter isolation, e.g. put public facing containers in one VM and local only stuff in another.

Also has high availability if you have multiple nodes but that can be achieved with container orchestration as well.

Lmao what a take
