    How is proxmox with unraid? I am looking to migrate over to that setup but am worried about how complex it’ll get.

      It’s fantastic, though I should add that my Proxmox and Unraid are separate hardware, as with my Raspberry-Pi DNS Servers and Proxmox backup machine.
      After started with Unraid a little over a year ago, this motivated me to move to a real hypervisor Unraid can virtualize, dockerize, etc, but has far too many drawbacks to justify the hardware commitments, though it was an excellent starting point.
      Add to this, a (custom) DNS and SSL termination, and we well on our way to a proper home lab setup.
      It’s worth mentioning that while there are people virtualizing Unraid on Proxmox, that the implications of inter-service dependencies were just not worth the hassles against diversifying backend services.
      Next up; UPS, pfSense (router), and forwarding DNS servers on a 10GbE backplane :D
