Sandboxed development environments in Ubuntu:
https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/05/canonical-workshop-dev-environments
Feels like a good idea to me; I will have to try it out.
Also, this feels like another step towards fully containerized, immutable desktops. A good thing.

Вместо 8 разных VPS: как я организовал практику студентам на одном сервере
Как дать студентам курса живой опыт деплоя, не заставляя их покупать собственные VPS и не плодя локальные виртуалки? Я решил эту задачу, «нарезав» один сервер на полностью изолированные рабочие пространства с помощью системы контейнеризации Incus . В этой статье — история одного занятия с пошаговым гайдом и разбором всех собранных граблей: почему Docker конфликтует с ZFS, куда пропадает интернет из-за IPv6 и как пробросить порты так, чтобы у каждого студента был свой кусочек сервера.

Nachdem ich mich ca. 15 Jahre mit LXC in der Kommandozeile herumgeschlagen habe, werde ich mich mal etwas mit LXD bzw. dessen Fork Incus beschäftigen und mal den einen oder anderen Container umziehen :neocat_happy: Der erste, nicht ganz so wichtige Container zieht gerade schon dank
lxc-to-incusum. Mal schauen, wie das Ergebnis dann aussieht :neocat_solder_googly: #lxc #lxd #incus #container -

LXD 6.7 adds AMD GPU CDI support and enhances VM GPU passthrough with updated QEMU and EDK2 versions, improving virtualization performance.
https://linuxiac.com/lxd-6-7-container-virtual-machine-manager-released/ -
So I saw a blog post linked on here the other week about someone's homelab where they use #Incus to run all their containers and VMs. And I've fallen into the rabbit hole.
That post: https://linderud.dev/blog/personal-infrastructure-setup-2026/
Anyway, Incus is the fork/successor to #LXD which as recently as last year they released #IncusOS which is a very slimmed down OS for running multiple types of containers and VMs. A bit like #Proxmox in a sense.
What I like about the distro:
- Immutable
- A-side/B-side partition layout for friendlier updates
- Requires Secure Boot + TPM, resulting in encrypted drives by default
- ZFS. I've loved ZFS for many years.It really seems like this was built for edge type deployments where secure "appliance" like things really excel yet still a net benefit elsewhere.
Since vSphere was killed, this feels pretty damn close to what I liked about it.
Can already run VMs along side "System Containers" (shared kernel + init system) and "App Containers" (what everyone calls "Docker"). I see on the roadmap support for MicroVMs (OCI container + individual kernel).
I run all of my stuff bar storage on #k3s on baremetal but there's times when I need a VM or different container behaviour than it offers.
-
I tried using #Incus because that problem related to #LXD, but now I'm using LXD for a couple reasons, like I can get a fresh version of LXD over snap, which I can't do with Incus, so I need to use the LTS version available on Ubuntu, the network in the container just works with LXD, and Incus I can't get network in the container, just in the VM, and I can get daily versions from Ubuntu with LXD but not with Incus.

Another highlight from the #Ubuntu booth at #IndiaFOSS2025 ✨
An attendee tried out Magic (Open Sourve VLSI layout tool) — running smoothly inside an #Ubuntu 25.10 VM created with LXD ⚡
Needless to say, LXD was buzzing at the booth! 🚀
-
The #Ubuntu 🇮🇳 booth at #IndiaFOSS2025 was full of energy today!
Attendees explored snaps, LXD, and more — but the real wow moment was a nested VM setup:
👉 An Arch container running inside an #Ubuntu 25.10 LXD VM 🤯 -
for anyone like me who is very very (very) late to the Linux #LXC party, this explains why #LXD has been replaced with #Incus.
tl;dr: #Canonical ruined things with a embrace-extend-extinguish play of relicensing and requiring contributors to sign a CLA to contribute to LXD.

LXD 6.5 is out now, bringing PCI hotplug, OIDC secret support, QEMU 9.1 compatibility, dark mode UI, and better VM directory disk hotplugging.
https://linuxiac.com/lxd-6-5-container-virtual-machine-manager-released/ -
It looks like #lxd is broken for some unknown reason. This tooling is hilariously bad. -
My head hurts. Doing a deep-dive into containerization/VM with #Jenkins. So many options. I think I'll give #LXD a shot. But frankly, since my #OpenMPI program is already containerized via #Apptainer, I'll just go ahead and build on the (fairly powerful) Jenkins host for now, just to get the pipeline built as a proof of concept.
Time for an adult beverage.

I didn't see this coming. Apparently #multipass from #canonical is yo try to do local cloud. Though I'm curious why not do this from #lxd. It's already doing this exact same work and it works pretty well. 😅

New blog post! :ggfun:
A year has passed since my last State of the Homelab post, so it's time for an update.
In this episode I talk how my homelab looks right now, what is the hardware, what I am running on it. NAS, ZFS, LXD, Docker, all those words. Also a bit on replacing a PSU for a more efficient one.
-
New blog post!
In which I once again talk about LXD. In this episode I migrate my monitoring services to LXD, move LXD storage to ZFS, and realize I have made a serious acoustic mistake.

okay
i have installed windows11 today in 3 different VM-system (LXD, virt-manager, VirtualBox) and I am back in virtual box, the classic.
so, now exploring win11 and... where the fuck is the X on the settings screen?!
Yes, I have installed all updates and restarted. Wheres the X? How do I close this window?
Spoiler: i found out, can you guess?#windows11 #windows #virtualisation #vm #virtualbox #lxd #virtmanager

So I managed to get #Forgejo jobs running in a way that I'm happy enough with. The main concern is that they're isolated as possible. The current runner has a scary warning on it that it's in alpha and shouldn't be considered secure.
The runner instance is Debian running in an #lxd --vm on my laptop (I didn't want to consume resources on the server since it's small). In this instance I have #k0s running, which is a slimmed down #Kubernetes, which is running #Codeberg 's runner pod. This has three containers. One to register the runner, then two others that are always running, the runner itself and #Docker -in-Docker . You can replicate this entire setup so that each runner gets its own DinD which is completely separated from the others.
Each runner checks for a single job in a loop, and once a job is completed then the docker server is pruned, and the runner shuts down. Then k0s will automatically restart it. This isn't perfect but it's better than runner processes which never shut down, because the docker cache will linger and others can look at it to spy on your jobs.

Hey Everyone, You've been meaning to do it but now is the time 'circle the wagons' and get your systems moved from docker to something else.
Time for me to 'restart' the migration.
Remember: never Oracle

Notes for January 29-February 4
A rather quiet week, with a few family events. A lot of this played out against the technicolor background of the Apple Vision Pro going on sale, which has turned most of my news feeds into a stream of gibberish.(...)
