Pretty much the title. I’ve seen plenty of people using proxmox and truenas but I don’t really see many homelab users running Ubuntu server or something similar? Do many people actually use it to run docker or any containers on their machines? Just curious.

    Debian for me on all VMs and all servers that do not run a hypervisor. Can’t stand the snaps that Ubuntu introduced in a very aggressive and intrusive way. Don’t need a GUI either so Debian is a natural choice for me. Pro tip for non critical services: Enable the backports repository to get modern packages with recent versions. I’ve never encountered a problem, but still would not recommend it for a mission critical service.
