I switched from sudo to doas when setting up my new laptop ~ two years ago, took some time to get accustomed, but it is really much simpler.. For `sudo -i` you can just use `doas -s`. https://manpages.debian.org/bookworm

Yeah, I'm still disappointed that they swapped out lots of their C++ implementation with JavaScript. While I definitively think that the devs were qualified to determine that their C++ code base was a too big maintenance burden, I just

That's not a gotcha on Proxmox projects but a gotcha everywhere, SWAP on ZFS needs a lot of special care to avoid that it needs to allocate memory during swapping memory out (e.g., if low on memory), causing hard-freezes. It can be mad
