I agree -- I'm personally super excited to try my hand at using LXD[0] on Ubuntu, in particular I want to see just how awesome/well-isolated system images are. If everything I'm reading is right, lxd/lxc system containers are going to make running VMs seem outdated.

Unfortunately it's a little bit annoying because the lxd docs don't make it easy to find what they define as a "system image" -- do you have some links to more more good layouts? I actually found a good talk from DebConf '17[1].

I mostly rely on system images from Proxmox, they're fairly okayish to run even without PM.

I still need VMs for some things, especially when the kernel of the host is too old or missing modules I need or when I need to mount things via FUSE (or similar ops).
