"It’s also possible to install Proxmox VE 9.0 on top of Debian." Has that always been the case? I have a faint memory of trying once and not being able to with Proxmox 7.x

Somewhat annoyingly, Proxmox relies on a non-Debian kernel for at least some of its features. This definitely made a difference w/ Bookworm (which was on the 6.1 kernel release series), not sure about Trixie (which will be on 6.12).

We did it for 7.x [1] and it worked fine (since upgraded things in-place to 8.x).

> The Proxmox VE mobile interface has been thoroughly reworked, using the new Proxmox widget toolkit powered by the Rust-based Yew framework. First time hearing about Yew (yew.rs). First time hearing about it. Is it like writing frontend code in Rust and compiled to WASM ? Is anyone using it (other than Proxmox folks, of course).

I'm using it for a browser extension, just because I wanted to code more in rust. It's great at what it does and has all the same paradigms from React. The best use case though, would be if all your code is already rust. If you have a complex UI I'd probably use react and typescript.

I've heard good things about XCP-ng [1] as well: anyone use both that can lay out the pros/cons of each? [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XCP-ng

I can't speak for pros and cons with XCP-Ng. I've been meaning to try out XCP-ng. But feel like there just isn't a large enough community support around it yet. At least not like Proxmox, which has seen a surge in usage and popularity after the Broadcom fiasco.

I like Promox a lot, but I wish it had an equivalent to VMware's VMFS. The last time I tried, there wasn't a way to use shared storage (i.e., iscsi block devices) across multiple nodes and have a failover of VMs that use that storage. And by failover I mean moving a VM to another host and booting it there, not even keeping the VM running.

Proxmox has built-in support for CEPH, which is promoted as VMFS equivalent.

I don't have much experience with them, so can't tell if it's really on the same level.
