Guess I'm moving to proxmox
Free ESXi will also be killed off I bet
As someone who moved to Proxmox for my 3-node homelab, good luck.
I find the automation for deploying VMs to be woefully incapable compared to Terraform/PowerCLI on the VMware side. Not to mention things like load balancing/DRS are flat out missing.
I managed to get it stable enough for homelab-y things like *arr, plex, DNS, etc - but at this point I would quit rather than use it in a production environment. Or maybe I would just look at bare metal kubernetes instead.
What OS would you use for the bare metal install?
Probably Debian or Ubuntu LTS?
