A while ago I made a post about Incus that got pretty good response. For those who missed it, its a full LXC and KVM virtual machine management system by people who were previously LXD and Ubuntu maintainers. It is a really cool system, but I'd say it skews more towards the developer/sysadmin crowd due to the lack of an in house GUI and appliance like installation. Its definitely not as easy to get started with compared to Proxmox or XCP-ng.
This will be a very huge win for both projects. Incus will gain a much larger and more diverse user base among TrueNAS customers by having a polished GUI, and TrueNAS will finally get a virtualization / container solution that doesn't suck. I'm still of the mindset that your NAS and hypervisor should be on difference pieces of hardware, but either way, very cool to see!
