I’m doing it as VM running in truenas, it works perfect. The LAN nic is shared between host and OpnSense and the wan is passed through to the VM as hardware.

It’s much better than my USG4 pro, so that is next to the server turned off

Same here, very happy about mxroute, they even have a plan where you pay once for lifetime account.

I’ve never used Yunohost, but I’ve tried many other ways of self hosting. From barebones Linux machine to using truenas now.

Proxmox and truenas are the best I’ve used. Proxmox and the LXC containers are just so very cool :) But I did end using truenas, simply because of truecharts.

I don’t want to spend forever installing something new, so using a shortcut is pretty cool and nothing wrong with that if it works 💪
