i am pretty sure that the correct answer for me for the time being is a mixture of alpine linux and netbsd

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt oh, just maintenance annoyances and frustrations with the cluster management in my current use case, i don't actually have anything against it.it's just that i'll get at least the same utility i'm getting now out of the servers i'm running it on, i suspect with less frustration, if i instead install Alpine Linux and use incus to manage my vms and containers

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt like right now i'm having to go boot up systems and restart services on one of my machines to make corosync happy, all because i rebooted one of my servers while another was offline and it screwed up the quorum. i don't need that, i'm not making use of the cluster/HA features currently, and that was one of the selling points in the first place, for me

@linear yeah corosync is one of the more fucky aspects of proxmox imowhen i heard that it straight-up didnt support clusters bigger than 16 nodes because of the amount of tight intercoupling required would spontaneously combust i was like "wait what"

@voipmeister@social.datarek.nl freebsd has broken virtualization on my PowerEdge R640 servers, so i had to stop using it because i really need virtualization on both of them
