  Oh, neat. I've been wanting to do something like that, but I was afraid that the combination of LXC + Docker would blow up due to networking or cgroups or something. Are you running Docker and LXC containers side by side? Any documentation on how you did it?

  What are your thoughts on this setup vs just docker+portainer on regular Ubuntu LTS, or even a dedicated Docker distro like Rancher? I had a previous home server built around docker, and found it fiddly to get right— most of the services I wanted to deploy didn't already have containers, and there was a lot of outer config stuff to play with, getting the containers to restart properly on reboot, getting DNS to resolve them, getting the right data directories set up as binds. But that was also in 2016, so it's likely things are a lot better now, and conversely, it's not necessarily clear that a VM-based approach would be a lot better in some of these areas.
