Curious to know what the experiences are for those who are sticking to bare metal. Would like to better understand what keeps such admins from migrating to containers, Docker, Podman, Virtual Machines, etc. What keeps you on bare metal in 2025?

I’m running a TrueNAS server on bare metal with a handful of hard drives. I have virtualized it in the past, but meh, I’m also using TrueNAS’s internal features to host a jellyfin server and a couple of other easy to deploy containers.
So Truenas itself is running your containers?
Yeah, the more recent versions basically have a form of Docker as part of its setup.
I believe it’s now running on Debian instead of free BSD, which probably simplified the containers set up.
