Anybody running IncusOS here? (linuxcontainers.org)

I discovered Incus and IncusOS recently, and they seem like a very cool foundation for a self-hosted setup.

I'm thinking of using them with incus-compose to declare my setup.

Does anybody use them? I'd love to get some feedback. Are they stable and polished yet, or are there still a lot of sharp edges?

They mention "designed for modern systems" on their website. Are there any issues running it on a roughly 10-year-old laptop?

Incus is designed to be a Hypervisor (e.g. like Proxmox / VMware). So it is fully intended to not be able to fuck around on the host system as you are supposed to create VMs and containers in which you can do that.

    No, you can install Incus on any linux distro. I use it on a Debian server.

    It's IncusOS that is immutable.

    But proxmox is actually just a set of packages on top of debian, and proxmox is not immutable either. You aren's supposed to tinker with the host, but if you are doing things like jailbreaking consuner gpu's to unlock the server gpu only features, then it becomes nice to have that option.
