I use a Proxmox Cluster and assigned dedicated NICs to my OPNsense VMs (also clustered). I connected the NIC ports I assigned to the OPNsense VMs directly with a cable and reserved it for CARP usage.
I can easily download with 1GB/s and the VMs switch without any packet loss during failover, 10/10 would do it again.

ATproto and activityPub aren't compatible are they? So we still need to wait for a bridge.
