I acquired the NUC around 2016, way before Scale came about, but I've been keeping an eye on it. Overall I'm pretty happy with Proxmox, and it would take a significant advantage in Scale or another product to make me migrate. At this point my plan is to build a second Proxmox box to create a little cluster.

One of the most annoying things about Proxmox for me is the web UI feels dated, and is completely unusable on mobile, even when requesting the desktop site. As that's mostly an aesthetic issue I just deal with it.

I know I'm biased to Scale, but if you do end up building a second Proxmox box, I'd say trying out Scale before installing Proxmox, just to get a feel for it. I've really enjoyed Scale's web UI, and it's ease of use for deploying things, so if you've got the time, might as well see what's available.

I might do that. It would be the perfect time to, and I've been meaning to check it out. I've also thought about spinning up a VM and installing Scale just for evaluation.

Hmm, while I'd definitely endorse trying out scale on bare metal. I've seen posts in the past of people having performance issues running on a VM. Now, while that was over well of a while ago (year or 2 maybe?), and it's possible they might have fixed those issue by now. It's still worth noting you might not get the true experience of testing out Scale through a VM.

I understand, and I would never run any production services on it. It would just be to check out the UI in the absence of having another free box to install it on.

Awesome! Just wanted to be sure just in case, as it has been attempted before, and you can never be too sure.
