VMWare FUD. Anyone moving away from it professionally? (self.sysadmin)

I've been seeing a lot of doom and gloom about VMware. The cutting of services and licensing changes of the cost of core offerings are huge issues. Is anyone planning or budgeting to change to another hypervisor? If so what?

PBS is an excellent backup solution. I wouldn't let the lack of Veeam support on Proxmox hold you back.

It's really difficult to move away from a backup software you just switched to and paid > 100k to license for the next 3 years from a leadership standpoint haha. PBS, zfs snapshots and send, Ceph duplication. It all does more or less the same thing.
