What is the complete feature set ?

Proxmox is open source (AGLP3.0 license), so you don't lose features if you don't buy anything. It's a support subscription to get updates more slowly (better tested) and a certain amount of support tickets per year (by Proxmox or maybe their partners). Contact Proxmox sales directly if you don't believe the volunteers (i.e. random strangers on the internet) on this forum: https://shop.proxmox.com/submitticket.php?step=2&deptid=1

Thanks.

is there anything in the enterprise repos that is not nor will come to the No-Subscription repos ?

I have just started my journey into homelab'ing and is trying different things and Proxmox is apparently the best performing virtualisation platform so I'm giving it a run at the moment.

I'm surprised that PVE with so many years of development still have 'obvious' bugs or pitfalls.

e.g. I did "something" wrong when trying to delete 2 LVM's and ended up with them still being listed in the sidebar but not available, and I could not wipe the disk, so a 'command line' was needed.

But that's another story

on the pricing page it's stated that even with the 'Community' subscription you will get access to the full feature set, that's why I was asking

No, it's the other way around: everything in testing/no-subscription will eventually come to the enterprise repository (after testing for a while). This is a common misconception, unfortunately.

But at least you can try everything (and get free support from a community) before buying. If it does not meet you expectations then at least you still have your money left to spend on other virtualization solutions.

aha... so when I pay, I get the updates slower

Yes, like I said before. Things break less often but when they occasionally do (like PCIe passthrough, which cannot be guaranteed anyway), it also takes longer to receive the fix. But you can get packages from test or no-subscription even when paying for the enterprise repository, to work around it.
