VyOS or Opnsense

I read today about VyOS and I really like the idea and approach but I am not sure how it compares to Opnsense in terms of performance and features. I know it doesn’t have a GUI, which is a bit of a bummer for me.

I have purchased a mini router PC and I was thinking to build a dedicated router and firewall on it. I also have another PC that I am planning to run as a Proxmox host and install a couple of VMs and LXC containers, as well as Home Assistant along with Omada, as I am thinking of purchasing some TP-Link AP compatible with Omada.

But would love to hear some feedback from people who used both what they think.

Keep in mind that although I am technical and have a fair understanding of networking and VLANs I am not exactly an expert in networking. Does it make sense to go into the VyOS route in that case?

The end goal is to have a dedicated network and routing for the IoT network, dedicated Wireguard, guest WiFi, etc.
