Can Incus do regular vms too, or only LXCs? I think I looked at it before but wrote it off because I still have some workloads that have to be in VMs.

It can do VMs, "system containers" like LXC and Docker/OCI-compatible application containers.

There was a project to implement a dockcer-compose compatible "incus-compose" but unfortunately, it looks dead, right now.

You can even set up a kubernetes cluster entirely composed of containers: https://github.com/lxc/cluster-api-provider-incus

Yes, it can do both. The image server will build for both options if possible, so you have to specify “—vm” on the command line creating the domain.

That's awesome, thanks for the nudge. I reinstalled one of my proxmox servers so that I can try Incus out and see if I like it.

It looks like it may handle networking (via ovn) a bit better than what I have now
