I run proxmox and a trunas VM.

• TrueNAS is on a virt disk on a NVME drive with all the other VMs/LXCs
• I pass the HBA through to TrueNAS with PCI passthrough: 6 disk Raid z2. this is ‘vault’ and has all my backups of hone dirs and photos etc
• I pass through two HDs as raw disks for bulk storage (of linux ISOs): 2 disk Mirrored zfs

Seems to work well

I think you have a problem, there needs to be more to be normal.

I’m wondering if you have an incorrect gateway set or default route

also, what ports on both routers are connected? are they both using “WAN” for their uplink?

As said look at DHCP clashes or " Wall -> Ethernet Splitter -> PC Under either"

What do you mean by this? The ones I know of will drop the connection to 10mb or 100mb and will on work on both “halves” at the same time*

you could probably find cheaper with more to do more

I see you mentioned the free Oracle cloud servers, they are not simple to use like many cloud VPS. But if you wanted to go down that route then if you get a full account with a CC on file then you can normally get the ampere instance (still free)

I say go with proxmox on the n100 (I use it), there are alternatives kvm/QEMU managers that I heard good things about as well (namely Incus https://github.com/lxc/incus )

Start your DE!

WAYLAND_DISPLAY=/run/user/$(id -u yourmainuser)/wayland-0 startplasma-wayland

This is cool

This has taken a long time to get this far, must try it again…

Install was painless and completed in under 60sec, boot was fast, maybe not as fast as the good old BE5 and it seems to work.

That looks like lots of good work 👍

so lemmy on their join-lemmy.org site have this, https://join-lemmy.org/donate

Goodbye?

I don’t quite think the front fell off though

I dont think that I have ever spun up a kubuntu image, but here are a few random thoughts to go with what others have said:

I have Neon running as a VM in proxmox driving the lounge TV with the intel iGPU passed through to it. Ive beenvery happy with wayland and plasma6 except for rdp/nomachine/etc not working on my setup. It’s the only fault really.

I have fedora kde as a parallels desktop on my m2 and it works well there.

Another option (as stated) my be openSUSE. openSUSE is where I landed after I left gentoo and I ran that for along time untill I had to use windows for a few years.

Very interesting, I made a local community !kiwiclassifieds@no.lastname.nz a year or so ago but have done nothing with it

I saw a reference to it the other day but didn’t look further, it looks like the windows docker image can only run as athe same os as the base release

I wonder if the windows docker image could be of use?

For me and my (very - it may be down to just me logging in, but a couple of the communities have a few people that read/vote) small instance it comes down to feel (“Don’t be a dick”). Dave, the admin of lemmy.nz (about 80 users per week) has the same in their side board as their “Rule”. Dave and I set up our *nz instances in the same week and we chat often. He might not be quire as quick with the ban hammer as I might be though.

When you are this small even a small outside problem can have huge effects on your instance

with *nz content on my instance, very few

Admin of a small instance, I have banned 2 accounts for another instance that were downvoting almost all content in a threads without any other interaction. They were being disruptive to the flow at the time, much like @ericjmorey@discuss.online describes.
