I’ve never actually used cloud-init. I generally prefer to do all my setup and provisioning manually. At least so far. I don’t spin up machines often enough to need to automate the various setup and provisioning routines that typically go along with making new VMs. That might change later.
Even though I use Proxmox in my homelab and do not use it for anything “Mission Critical” I do like using cloud-init to quickly spin up a machine without having to then spend the next 30 minutes or so installing all of the little tidbits that I like having at my disposal. Eg. neofetch, tmux, etc.
