I know telling you that "You should have done this" isn't helpful today, but super recommend Proxmox in the future. I have had containers running Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby all on the same physical host by utilizing LXCs. Migration could be rough, but overall it's not as complicated as it sounds.
Proxmox sounds like VMs, which is a hard no for me since that’s why I went to Docker in the first place, to get away from the overhead of VMs. Am I misunderstanding?
Not misunderstanding, just not the full picture. Proxmox can do VMs, but LXCs are different thing.
LXCs are a 'container' and have some requirements that might be frustrating sporadically, but they are much lighter. They'll present like you'd expect from a VM (Their own operating system/shell/etc) but resources are mostly shared across LXCs on a host. Overhead isn't gone, but drastically reduced. Personal experience obviously, but it's never been something I've had to seriously consider on an LXC.
