That's a hell of a good deal!

You could install Docker on windows, that would make hosting most common services pretty easy. Hyper-V would let you run VMs if you needed to for some reason.

That's pretty weird, where were the files stored that went missing? Just in your home folder?

Definitely recommend setting up regular daily backups, you can use the built in proxmox backup system, or run whatever tool you want inside each VM/CT.

The answer is that those version numbers are the Windows analogue to the “23.10” at the end of “Ubuntu 23.10”. But the difference is that this distinction is invisible to Windows users.

The other difference is updating from 23.04 to 23.10 requires running a separate utility, changing repos, and can often break things (PHP upgrading but things still pointing to the old socket version for example). That's why it feels like a major upgrade, because it is a lot closer to going from W10 to W11, vs just 23H2 to 24H2 which is invisible.

Making corporate over security decisions.

I read the opposite essentially, that F5 is publishing CVEs and the dev did not want them to.

With Intel QSV enabled it should be able to transcode like 4-6 1080p streams IIRC. Quicksync is very impressive hardware acceleration.

Finding throughput data is difficult though, basically anything will support like 500Mbps, but hitting 1-2Gbps consistently with internet downloads or transfers crossing VLANs seems a lot tougher.

I've run Opnsense for quite a few years now, haven't really had any issues with it.

I'd like to try OpenWRT and move to a nice low power router, but figuring out what hardware is supported is hard, as just "it runs openwrt" isn't good enough when hardware acceleration often doesn't work and stuff like that. Overall just too confusing for me to bother with finding hardware that will handle at least 3 Gbps throughput.

VyOS looks interesting but CLI only sounds super rough, I don't really understand how I would do stuff like see DNS blocklist stats and easily whitelist by clicking on a blocked host, or add a static IP by clicking on the MAC address and that sort of thing.

Anything based on KVM does great

Best option is to delay docker startup until the mounts are ready.

It's not too different from ESXi, things are just named differently in the webUI.

If you're running a basic linux install you can use KVM for some VMs. Or use Proxmox for a good ESXi replacement.
