Leaving Proxmox

I’ve been running Proxmox for well over a year now and have it installed on four systems. Recently I’ve been thinking about what I would do if I had to restore from a catastrophic failure. It got me thinking about simplifying and moving to something like Ubuntu. Ubuntu wouldn’t be opinionated about me running docker containers on the host (I currently run them in a VM) and I could ditch LXC.

I feel like Proxmox has become a pet and I really want cattle. The dream would be Ubuntu configured via ansible.

Im also using proxmox’s built in backup on the VMs and LXCs even though everything is on zfs. It feels rather duplicative.

Has anybody been on a journey away from proxmox?
