I've seen pterodactyl recommended so I tried setting it up. But it feels a little bit out of my league, as I'm still pretty new to servers/homelabbing.

The main game I want to host currently is modded Minecraft but I'd like the option of hosting other games in the future. I have proxmox and docker/protainer currently set up

It's been few years but anyway.

My first encounter was with Linux Game Server Manager. As you mentioned you are new to servers/homelab you might enjoy it. If you are looking to just host 1 or 2 servers , go with LGSM.

Few years ago(atleat 5 years ago) i was using OGP(Open Game Panel) which was perfect for my requirement back then.

Pterodactyl is very much recommended everywhere although i am yet to try it.

It really depends on what you intend to do with them. New ? Start with LGSM, try to learn what are your requirements and whether LGSM is able to fulfill it. if not then time to learn something new again.

Good luck
