Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I meant you should switch to proxmox. What are you referring to?
No this is Patrick.
Spongebob is that you?
He should really switch to LXD/Incus, not Proxmox as it will end like ESXi one day.
Lxd is slow and doesn't support HA
LXD uses QEMU/KVM/libvirt for VMs thus the performance is at least the same as any other QEMU solution like Proxmox, the real difference is that LXD has a much smaller footprint, doesn’t depend on 400+ daemons thus boots and runs management operations much faster. The virtualization tech is the same and the virtualization performance is the same.
Here's one of my older LXD nodes running HA:
It's "so hard" to run HA under LXD... you just have to download the official HA OS image and import to LXD.
Sorry I meant high availability as in the ability to live transfer a VM to a different host without downtime or service interruptions.
I hear that I lot of people are using LXC. Are you using a container runtime in the LXC container? (i.e. docker or podman)
Oh, my bad then. But yes, like Proxmox, LXD/Incus can do live migrations of VMs since 4.20 (2021 I believe). Live migration of containers can be done under specific circunstantes as well.
In some of them yes. At least under Debian as long as you've set
security.nesting=trueit will work fine.
