With Incus only officially supported in Debian 13, and LXD on the way out, should I get going with LXD and migrate to Incus later? Or use the Zabbly repo and switch over to official Debian repos when they become available? What's the recommended trajectory, would you say?
It depends on how fast you want updates. I'm sure you know how Debian works, so if you install LXD from Debian 12 repositories you'll be on 5.0.2 LTS most likely for ever. If you install from Zabbly you'll get the latest and greatest right now.
My companies' machines are all running LXD from Debian repositories, except for two that run from Zabbly for testing and whatnot. At home I'm running from Debian repo. Migration from LXD 5.0.2 to a future version of Incus with Debian 13 won't be a problem as Incus is just a fork and stgraber and other members of the Incus/LXC projects work very closely or also work in Debian.
Debian users will be fine one way or the other. I specifically asked stgraber about what's going to happen in the future and this was his answer:
I hope this helps you decide.
Absolutely. Great intel; thank you!
