Plex S3 + rclone

I am using this https://github.com/yandex-cloud/k8s-csi-s3 deployed as a helm chart here: https://github.com/buroa/k8s-gitops/blob/master/cluster/core/kube-system/csi-s3/helm-release.yaml. It's very reliable and memory usage is always under 300MB.

Docker Desktop runs dockerd in a Linux VM with Apple's hypervisor framework. You can also run containers in a Linux VM with Parallels or VMware Fusion hypervisors. But you can't run VMs inside those VMs as it stands today. This works fine on Intel Macs which means you can't experiment and use KVM - one of the killer features of Linux and things like https://kubevirt.io/

Proxmox VE can run VMs and LXC containers (see my comment below on LXC). Kubernetes can run OCI containers, but there's also KubeVirt for running VMs.

Another option would be something like KubeVirt but that is a different use case where you are actually running a VM in a container for hard-to-containerize workloads.
