Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

Any specific reason you're running Proxmox? Why not run everything in containers with one VM for HA? Why LXCs?
Because, for Home Assistant, I moved it from Raspberry Pi 4 to a KVM and found it faster. I use Proxmox for that which I found to play nicer with it than just setting up a Debian Server and spinning up a KVM via QEMU on a desktop. I've been there and had issues over time. As for why LXC's they are smaller and the only ones I use are from https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ which makes them super simple to set up and run!
Can't speak for OP but I can say that I switched to proxmox from just running docker and services native. Proxmox offers a lot of flexibility, you can do snapshots, build many different LXC containers very easily, to keep things separate or have better control over resource usage. Also I run mine in a 3 node cluster so I can do live migration of VMs and pretty quick migrations of LXC containers. This all allows me to run my services with little to no downtime and have redundancy.
Sounds like the precursor to kubernetes and docker swarm!
