In case you didn't hear TrueNAS is going partially closed source. However, there seems to be a lack of alternatives.

Any ideas on what to move to?

Currently running proxmox and using cockpit to present smb, which is all that I was doing with TrueNAS. Gotta set up a few pieces manually but not really a hassle.

    Does cockpit have proper UI for ZFS and NFS? That's the only reasons I'm using TrueNAS currently and I'm a bit annoyed with it generally.

    Not for zfs. I mount zfs on proxmox. Why I don’t just run samba on proxmox, I’m not sure. There is some fuckery with permissions to make it work in a container and permissions are unnecessary for my use case.

    But you don’t really need a ui for zfs. I ran it for 10 years on TrueNAS and only used it for initial setup.
