> LXD is actually a cool technology.

It is a pretty nifty idea but like all things made by Canonical it is basically digitized garbage.

I tried to get LXC running on fedora some months, wondering why there are no official packages and then I very quickly noticed why. LXD uses the old Ubuntu trick of calling sysv style init scripts from systemd unit files without so much as a "|| exit 1" [1][2] - and I don't have time for that bullshit.

If you want vastly superior quality try podman with --rootfs or virt-install. At least those are not made by people with a disdain for error checking.
