I used or it used me for a couple of years. Then while looking for a replacement I found the snap version. I installed it in a fresh Ubuntu VM and it just works.

Any specific reason to move from a Mikrotik to OPNsense?

I think this is the best homelab router out there. If you are new to Mikrotik there is definitely a steep learning curve.

Openwrt is fairly good too, but I think documentation can be lacking and confusing for some edge applications. My other concerns with openwrt is performance since it is compatible with a wide variety of hardware is difficult to know how it will perform without testing it.

Can you share the link for that case?

In my experience Eaton UPSs are better than APC, CyberPower. Look at 5S1500LCD and the like.
