I'd say Sylve, but it's not as mature as Proxmox. Yet it's usable and already has a lot of nice features.

I'd use it in my homelab, probably not in prod (yet)

I still prefer, when possible, the "good old" vm-bhyve and BastilleBSD. Just a sh script, able to manage the entire lifecycle of the VM or jails. No overhead at all.

Thanks for writing up these resources!
Of course BSD is more stable, secure, and efficient. It makes imminent sense as a base layer for infrastructure or even desktop.
What's the equivalent of Proxmox on BSD for web-based provisioning/configuration of jails/VMs? I''m considering this migration myself.
