I am also slowly preparing myself to the world where there is no SSH into the server machine. I am following what's happening around IncusOS. Already sold on Incus for my containers, it does make sense on a paper: safe auto-updates, no manual key management, all you need is managed via API in a cluster (usually).

Can you tell me a bit more on how you use Incus.. is it just personal use, or otherwise? What type of workloads do you run on it, and how is your networking setup / experience?

I use it for professional use, running production services which don't require 99.999 availability and have relatively low traffic, basically some internal dashboards and tools.

I develop my programs as deb/systemd packages and deploy in "fat" ubuntu/debian incus containers.

I have a cluster with three machines where one is used for build-containers and second for production containers. I am looking forward having time to have ZFS streaming incremental backup of the containers.

For big servers I use Proxmox, which is great, but Incus (and IncusOS) feel a bit more futuristic, where Proxmox is more bullet-proof enterprise solution.
